| Reverse description | The reverse displays two Chinese characters in regular script arranged around the central square hole: the mint identifier 全 (Jeon, abbreviating Cholla Military Fort, 全羅兵營) positioned above the hole, and the series character 昃 (Ch'uk, meaning 'declining afternoon sun,' indicating the second issue of this denomination) placed below the hole. The fields are otherwise plain with a raised rim, typical of Joseon Dynasty cast cash coinage. This combination of mint mark and series character serves as the primary attribution device for this emission. |
