| Obverse description | Central field bears a four-character vertical legend reading 宣統元寶 (Xuantong Yuanbao), flanked by additional Chinese characters. The upper arc of the inner beaded circle carries the inscription 東三省造 (Made in the Three Eastern Provinces), while the lower arc reads 庫平一錢四分四釐 (Kuping one mace, four candareens and four li), denoting the coin's weight standard. Two stylised floral rosettes appear at the lateral extremities of the inner legend. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border with an outer raised rim, rendered in a clean, mechanical milled style typical of late Qing provincial coinage. |
