| Obverse description | Round cast bronze coin with a central square perforation surrounded by a raised square rim. Four Chinese characters in clerical script are disposed in the four quadrants around the central hole, reading clockwise from top: 太清豐樂 (Tai Qing Feng Le), each character occupying its own quadrant between the inner square rim and the outer raised border. The field shows heavy patination with red cuprite and green malachite deposits consistent with prolonged burial, and the legends, though worn, remain largely legible against the flat inner field. |
