| Beschrijving voorzijde | Large cast coin featuring four Chinese characters in regular script (kaishu) arranged around a central square perforation, read in the traditional vertical sequence: top, bottom, right, left — rendering the dynastic legend 太平天國 (Taiping Tianguo, 'Taiping Heavenly Kingdom'). The characters are boldly rendered in raised relief against a plain field, occupying each quadrant around the central hole. The coin displays a wide, flat rim with no additional decorative border. The casting shows characteristic texture of mid-19th century Taiping rebel mint production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was not a dynasty minting coins as a formality — it was a millenarian theocratic state at war with the Qing government for over a decade, fielding armies in the tens of millions and controlling significant stretches of the Yangtze valley. These large-denomination cash pieces were struck at Nanjing, which the Taiping held as their capital, Tianjing, from 1853 until its fall in 1864. The vertical arrangement of the reverse inscription distinguishes this variety from the horizontal reading type, a difference Hartill treats as a separate catalogued issue rather than a minor die curiosity.
