| Reverse description | The reverse is largely plain, featuring the central square hole framed by a raised square border, enclosed within a plain inner rim and a raised outer rim. A single Chinese character 二 (er, meaning 'two') is cast above the square hole, indicating the denomination of 2 cash. The field is otherwise devoid of additional marks or inscriptions. The surface shows heavy iron oxidation and patination consistent with burial or long-term deposition, with the denomination character remaining legible. |
