| Obverse description | The obverse features multiple Chinese ideograms arranged in a traditional format, with a central character surrounded by additional characters reading top to bottom and right to left. The outer legend gives the provincial authority, denomination, and weight standard in classical Chinese script. The field bears the cyclical date inscription 亥辛 (Xinhai, corresponding to 1911), identifying the year of issue. The overall arrangement follows the conventional layout of late Qing provincial silver coinage, with inscriptions denoting manufacture at the Fukien Mint under the Guangxu era. |
