| Reverse description | The reverse presents a central square hole flanked by four inscriptions disposed in cruciform arrangement within a raised inner rim. The horizontal axis bears Manchu script characters identifying the Fuzhou Mint (Boo-fu), while the vertical axis carries Chinese characters reading 一百 (Yi Bai, meaning '100') above and 兩 (Liang) below the perforation. The outer field is divided into four panels by the inner rim projections, with additional Chinese legend 五兩計重 (Wu Liang Ji Zhong, '5 Liang calculated weight') completing the denomination and weight declaration. The overall composition follows the standard Qing large-cash format, with all inscriptions in high relief against a flat field and enclosed within a broad outer rim. |
