Obverse description	Four large Chinese characters arranged around a central solar or floral medallion motif, the legend reading 保大寳鑑 (Bao Dai Bao Chien) distributed across the four quadrants of the field. The central device depicts a stylized sun or chrysanthemum-like ornament with radiating flame elements. The entire design is enclosed within a continuous beaded border. The calligraphic rendering of the characters is bold and deeply struck in a traditional Sino-Vietnamese imperial style.
