Reverse description Central field displays four Tibetan script characters arranged in a cruciform reading pattern, from top to bottom and right to left, with stylized cloud motifs occupying the four corners. A circular border legend of Tibetan characters indicates the regnal year. The inscription reads 'Chan Lung Pa'u Gtsang' (Qianlong Imperial Tibetan Coin), with the peripheral legend specifying year 58 in Tibetan numerals (lnga bcu nga brgyad). The design mirrors the obverse layout, presenting the Tibetan-language equivalent of the Chinese imperial inscription.
