| Reverse description | Plain reverse (uniface) featuring a raised square rim surrounding the central square perforation, from the corners of which radiate diagonal lines extending toward the outer rim, creating a characteristic cross-like pattern in the four quadrants of the field. The radiate lines are a diagnostic feature of this Southern Dynasties iron Wu Zhu variety, distinguishing it from otherwise similar contemporary types. The outer rim is plain and slightly raised. |
