| Obverse description | Cast bronze cash coin featuring a central square perforation surrounded by a raised square rim. Four Chinese ideograms in Regular script (Kaishu) are arranged in the traditional reading order — top, bottom, right, left — around the central hole, forming the legend 嘉定通寶 (Jiading Tongbao). The characters are boldly rendered in relief against a flat field. An outer raised circular rim borders the coin's circumference, with a plain, undecorated field between the inner and outer rims. The coin shows a characteristic green and brown patina consistent with aged bronze. |
