| Obverse description | Central field bears four large Chinese ideograms arranged in a cruciform pattern reading top-to-bottom and right-to-left, flanking a central panel of Manchu script characters. The entire composition is encircled by an outer ring of additional Chinese ideograms forming the mint and denomination legend. The design is executed in high relief with a flat field, characteristic of late Qing provincial coinage. |
