| Obverse description | Central square hole surrounded by a plain inner rim and a broad flat annular field. The two-character Chinese inscription 直一 (Zhi Yi, meaning 'worth one hundred') is arranged flanking the square hole, one character to the left and one to the right of center, cast in low relief in archaic clerical script. The outer rim is plain and slightly raised. The coin is heavily patinated with green and brown encrustation consistent with burial. |
