Obverse description Central field bears four large Chinese ideograms arranged in a vertical and horizontal cross pattern, reading top to bottom and right to left, flanking a central panel of Manchu script characters. The entire central motif is encircled by an outer ring of additional Chinese ideograms forming the peripheral legend. The inscription denotes the issuing province, the reign title of Emperor Guangxu, and the denomination expressed as 7.2 Candareens weight. The design follows the standard format adopted for Qing dynasty provincial coinage of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
