| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cast bronze cash coin centred on a square perforation, with a raised inner square rim flanking the hole on the left and right sides but notably absent along the top edge — a defining characteristic of this Western Han variety. The two-character legend 五銖 (Wu Zhu) is disposed to either side of the central square hole, reading right to left, rendered in clerical-style Chinese script in shallow relief. The character 五 (five) appears to the right of the hole and 銖 (zhu) to the left, both cast with moderate definition. The outer rim is present, enclosing a flat, unadorned field. The coin displays an olive-brown patina with areas of green cuprite oxidation consistent with long burial. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Plain reverse displaying only the raised inner square rim surrounding the central square perforation, with no inscriptions, symbols, or decorative elements in the field. The outer rim is present and well-defined. The surface exhibits a mottled reddish-brown and olive patina with traces of green oxidation, typical of excavated Western Han bronze cash coinage. The absence of any legend or device on this side confirms the uniface nature of the type. |
