| Beschrijving voorzijde | Left-facing draped bust of Yuan Shikai, self-proclaimed Hongxian Emperor, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail. The subject is depicted in military uniform with an epaulette bearing rank insignia visible at the truncation. The effigy displays naturalistic facial modeling with a short goatee and close-cropped hair, executed in the Western academic style characteristic of engraver Luigi Giorgi. The field is smooth and unlettered, with a finely dentilated border encircling the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Yuan Shikai's self-proclaimed Hongxian reign lasted 83 days before overwhelming opposition — from provincial warlords, his own generals, and foreign powers withholding recognition — forced him to abandon the imperial project entirely in March 1916. He died four months later. Pattern coinage struck for the abortive coronation was never released, making survivors essentially artifacts of a government that dissolved before it formally began.
The "L. Giorgi" attribution refers to Luigi Giorgi, the Italian engraver employed at the Tientsin Mint whose signature appears on several Yuan-era patterns.
