Beschrijving keerzijde Central field bears a multi-line Arabic inscription stating the Hijri date, denomination in mithquals, and the Aksu mint, rendered in a flowing calligraphic style. The inscription is framed by an elaborate floral wreath composed of large stylized blossoms and curling foliate branches that fill the entire surrounding field. The design is executed in high relief, giving the wreath a pronounced three-dimensional quality. A toothed border encircles the entire reverse design at the periphery.

Aanvullende informatie

Aksu was one of several mints operating in Sinkiang under Qing administration during the 1890s, each producing coins with subtle local characteristics that distinguish them from issues of Kashgar, Urumqi, or Kucha. The three-mithqal denomination reflects the persistence of Islamic weight standards in the region — the mithqal being a measure of Arab origin that had circulated across Central Asia for centuries before the Qing ever consolidated control over Xinjiang in 1759.

Production at Aksu was intermittent and quality uneven, which accounts for the considerable variation seen across surviving specimens of Y#14.
