| Reverse description | Central field displays a single Chinese ideogram denoting 'Ji' (Kirin/Jilin), surrounded by four Chinese ideograms arranged to be read top to bottom and right to left. The surrounding legend reads '二文錢制', indicating the denomination of two wen (cash) and the issuing authority of Kirin province. The overall layout is austere and follows the formal conventions of late Qing milled copper coinage, with inscriptions occupying the full field without decorative border elements. |
