Obverse description The obverse displays eight Chinese characters arranged in two vertical columns across the field, reading from top to bottom. The legend identifies the issuing authority and denomination: Dihua (the Qing-era name for Urumchi), the Guangxu reign title, and the denomination of two qian in silver. The characters are rendered in a bold, raised style with clear strokes, filling the central field. The coin is bordered by a finely reeded rim that frames the inscription neatly.
