| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bilingual legend arranged around the central square hole. A single Chinese character 當 (Dang, meaning 'worth') appears above the aperture and 四 (Si, meaning 'four') below, while two vertically oriented Manchu script words flanking the hole read 'Boo-i' (寶伊), identifying the Ili mint. The casting is characteristic of Xinjiang provincial production, with bold strokes and a raised rim encircling the design. |
