| Obverse description | Cast bronze cash coin bearing the four-character reign legend 裕民通寶 (Yumin Tongbao) arranged in regular script (kaishu) reading top-to-bottom, right-to-left around a central square perforation. The characters are boldly rendered in raised relief against a flat, unadorned field, with a plain raised rim encircling the coin. The casting is characteristic of the Fujian fiefdom production under Geng Jingzhong, with moderately detailed strokes and a slightly irregular flan surface consistent with period workshop practice. |
