| Obverse description | Central field bears four large Chinese ideograms arranged in a cruciform reading top-to-bottom, right-to-left, flanked by Manchu script characters at centre. The entire arrangement is encircled by an outer ring of additional Chinese ideograms denoting the provincial authority, reign title, and denomination weight standard. A beaded inner border frames the central inscription, and a reeded outer rim encloses the whole design. The lettering is deeply struck in a formal, official style consistent with late Qing imperial minting practice. |
