Obverse description Central field bears the large Chinese characters 貳角 (Two Jiao) as the principal denomination legend. Surrounding the central denomination, a circular legend in Chinese characters reads 中華蘇維埃共和國 (Chinese Soviet Republic), flanked on either side by five-pointed stars. The lower arc of the legend carries the date in Chinese characters. The rim is toothed (beaded border), and the overall design is deeply struck in a plain, utilitarian style characteristic of Soviet-period Chinese regional coinage.
