| Reverse description | Plain reverse field featuring a central square hole with a raised inner rim and outer border. A single upward-facing crescent mark is cast in the field above the square aperture, and a single dot is positioned in the lower field below the aperture. Both marks served as mint or batch identification symbols. The overall surface shows the characteristic matte texture of cast bronze coinage of the Southern Song period. |
