| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a multilingual inscription surrounding the central square hole, identifying the Yarkand mint in three scripts. Two Chinese characters 當 (Dang, meaning 'worth') appear above the hole and 百 (Bai, meaning 'one hundred') below, together denoting a denomination of 100 cash. To the left of the hole, a Manchu legend reads ᠶᡝᡵᡴᡳᠶᠠᠩ (Yarkiyang), and to the right, an Old Uyghur (Chagatai) legend reads ياركند (Yarkand), both identifying the issuing mint. The raised characters are set within a flat field bounded by inner and outer raised rims, consistent with the multilingual coinage tradition of Qing-administered Xinjiang. |

Yarkand (Shache) was one of several mints established in Chinese Turkestan to supply coinage to a region where standard Board of Revenue cash had struggled to circulate effectively against locally entrenched barter and silver tael economies. The high-denomination 100-cash pieces struck here under Xianfeng were a response to the fiscal emergency created by the Taiping Rebellion, which was draining the imperial treasury and forcing the Qing government to issue increasingly overvalued coinage nationwide.
Xinjiang mint output from this period is notoriously inconsistent in weight and module, and Yarkand examples frequently deviate from nominal specifications — a product of remote administration rather than deliberate policy.
