| Obverse description | Round cast bronze coin with a central square hole, displaying four Chinese characters in seal script (zhuanshu) arranged in cruciform reading order around the central perforation. The characters 建炎重寶 (Jianyan Zhongbao) read top-bottom-right-left in the conventional Chinese coin format. The relief characters are boldly rendered against a flat field, with the legend confined within the inner rim. The coin exhibits a patinated green-grey surface consistent with burial oxidation of a cast bronze alloy. |
