| Reverse description | Plain, uninscribed reverse featuring a central square perforation surrounded by an undecorated flat field with no legend, rim, or decorative elements. The surface exhibits a heavy, uniform blue-green cuprite and malachite patina with scattered areas of sandy encrustation, consistent with long-term burial. The irregular casting seams and slightly uneven surface are characteristic of Han dynasty sand-mold casting technique. |
