| Obverse description | Central field bears four large Chinese ideograms arranged in a cruciform reading pattern (top to bottom, right to left), flanked by Manchu script characters at centre. The entire composition is enclosed within a border of additional Chinese ideograms forming the complete mint and denomination inscription. The layout follows the traditional square-within-circle format characteristic of late Qing provincial coinage, with the Manchu mint designation 'Boo-gi' (Jilin Mint) prominently featured alongside the reign title Guangxu. |

| Reverse description | A coiled five-clawed imperial dragon in high relief occupies the central field, its body sinuously curved around a flaming pearl at the bottom. The dragon is depicted in the classic late Qing style with detailed scales, flowing whiskers, and fierce expression. A beaded inner border separates the central dragon motif from the outer legend. The denomination and province name 'KIRIN 10 CASHES' are inscribed in Latin script around the periphery, interrupted by two small six-pointed rosette stops, all within an outer toothed border. |
