Reverse description The reverse displays a single large Chinese character in seal script (zhuanshu) positioned above the central square perforation, denoting the denomination. The character 五 (Wu, meaning 'five') is boldly cast and clearly legible, occupying the upper field. The remainder of the reverse is plain and unadorned, with a raised square rim around the hole and a smooth outer rim. The minimalist design is typical of Chinese cash denomination marks of the period.
