| Obverse description | The central field bears four large Chinese characters arranged vertically, flanked by additional inscriptions reading in traditional right-to-left order. The legend identifies the coin as issued in Year 8 of the Republic of China, denominated at 5 Fen, struck in nickel, and manufactured by Kwangtung Province. The overall layout is arranged in a cross-pattern with peripheral legends completing the full inscription. The design is executed in a clean, functional style typical of early Republican provincial coinage. A beaded inner border frames the central inscription area. |
