| Obverse description | Central square hole surrounded by a raised inner rim and a broad flat field, bearing four Chinese characters in regular script (kaishu) arranged in cruciform reading order: top, right, bottom, left. The legend reads 天祐通寶 (Tianyou Tongbao), denoting the Tianyou era of Zhang Shicheng's Dazhou Kingdom. The characters are bold and well-formed, each occupying one quadrant of the field. A raised outer rim borders the coin, showing characteristic casting texture consistent with mid-14th century Chinese bronze coinage. |
