Reverse description Round cast copper coin with a central square perforation framed by a raised square border. Two Chinese characters in regular script are positioned in the field around the central hole: the mint identifier 捴 (Chong, abbreviation for the General Military Office / Chongyungcheong) appears above the square hole, and the denomination indicator 盈 appears below, together serving as mint and series marks. The field is otherwise plain, with a broad protective rim. The bold, deeply cast characters are characteristic of the large-type (大字) variety issued during the mid-18th century.
