Beschrijving voorzijde Central field bears the two large Chinese characters 光緒 (Guangxu) arranged vertically, flanked by smaller Manchu script characters rendering the same imperial reign title. Below, the character 寶 (Bao, meaning 'treasure') appears prominently, completing the Yuanbao legend. A beaded inner circle frames the central inscriptions, with an outer legend reading 湖北省造 (Made in Hupeh Province) across the top and the denomination 庫平三錢六釐 (Worth 3.6 Candareens, treasury standard weight) along the bottom, all in Chinese characters. The design is executed in a clean, mechanical style consistent with late Qing provincial mint practice.

Aanvullende informatie

Hupeh was among the first inland Chinese provinces to establish a modern steam-powered mint, doing so under Zhang Zhidong's aggressive industrialization push in the early 1890s. This 1895 pattern was part of a broader probe into copper coinage that never reached authorized production — the Qing central government remained deeply ambivalent about provincial copper issues competing with the established cash-coin system.

KM#Pn1 is the only recorded pattern denomination from this abortive Hupeh copper program.
