Reverse description Plain, uninscribed reverse displaying the characteristic broad flat annulus surrounding the central square hole. No legend, decorative elements, or mint marks are present in the field. The surface retains a dark patina with areas of cuprite and malachite encrustation consistent with prolonged burial, and faint casting striations are visible along the inner square rim. The reverse rim is irregular and slightly flan-cracked, as is typical of small-module cast bronzes of the Three Kingdoms period.
