| Reverse description | Plain reverse showing a broad, flat field with a central square perforation framed by a raised inner square rim. The field is entirely devoid of inscription or decorative motif, as is typical of Southern Song Dynasty cash coinage of this issue. A raised outer rim borders the coin, and the surface exhibits the characteristic texture of sand-cast bronze production. |
