| Obverse description | Central field features a decorative floral rosette encircled by a wreath composed of stylized branches terminating in blossoms at the left and right. Four Chinese characters are arranged above the wreath and four below, forming the inscription denoting the Republic of China and the coin's denomination. The overall design is symmetrical and rendered in a flat, engraved style typical of early Republican provincial coinage. |

Floral sprigs or rosettes appear on either side of the flags. The English legend CHINA arcs above the central device, while the denomination 50 CASH appears in the lower field, completing the bilingual identification of the issuing authority and face value. |
