| Obverse description | Central square hole surrounded by a raised square rim, with four Chinese characters arranged in cruciform order around the perforation. Reading top-to-bottom and right-to-left in the traditional manner, the characters read 常平通寶 (Sangpyong Tongbo), identifying this coin as currency issued under the Sangpyong (Ever-Normal) bureau of the Joseon Dynasty. The characters are rendered in standard regular script (kaishu) and are set within a plain, unadorned field typical of cast Korean cash coinage. |
