| Obverse description | Cast brass coin with a central square hole. Four large Chinese characters in regular script (kaishu) are arranged in cruciform fashion around the central void: read top-to-bottom, right-to-left, they render 咸豐元寶 (Xianfeng Yuanbao). The characters are boldly rendered in relief against a flat field, with no additional decorative elements. The rim is broad and plain, framing the inscription cleanly. |
