| Reverse description | Plain, unadorned reverse with a central square perforation, exhibiting no inscription, decoration, or raised rim. The flat field shows an irregular surface texture resulting from the original sand or clay casting process, with areas of green and brown patination across the bronze. This blank reverse is entirely typical of Ban Liang cash coinage of the Warring States and early imperial Qin period. |
