Obverse description Cast bronze cash coin featuring a central square perforation surrounded by a raised square rim. Two Chinese characters flank the central hole in horizontal reading order: 銖 (zhu) to the right and 五 (five) to the left, rendered in clerical script relief. The characters are boldly cast within the inner field, with a flat, unadorned annular border surrounding the outer rim. The surfaces display typical patination consistent with ancient Chinese cast coinage, with no additional decorative elements in the field.
