| Obverse description | Host coin of the Republic of China, Szechuan Province, 200 Cash type, bearing a prominent countermark applied by the Hunan-Hubei Soviet authority, consisting of a hammer and sickle device within a five-pointed star, punched into the obverse field. The underlying host coin displays Chinese ideograms arranged in a traditional pattern, with peripheral legends identifying the issuing province and denomination. The countermark is boldly struck, partially obscuring the original design elements beneath it. |

| Reverse description | Reverse of the host coin showing the numeral '200' prominently displayed at center within a lozenge or diamond-shaped frame, itself enclosed by a decorative floral or foliate wreath that encircles the central device. The design is heavily worn and the surface shows significant circulation and environmental damage, consistent with a coin that served as a host planchet for countermarking. The wreath and surrounding field retain traces of the original relief, though detail is largely obscured by wear and corrosion. |
