| Reverse description | Plain and uninscribed, presenting a flat, featureless field with no legend, design, or decorative elements. The reverse is uniface, a characteristic common to many high-denomination cast bronze issues of the Shu Han state during the Three Kingdoms period. The surface shows extensive green cuprite and malachite patination with areas of reddish-brown cuprous oxide, consistent with the coin's age and burial history. |
