| Obverse description | Roughly cast irregular rectangular silver flan bearing a centrally placed incuse oval cartouche enclosing the denomination inscription in two Chinese characters arranged vertically. The characters 六 (six) and 匁 (monme) are rendered in a bold, archaic script style within the oval border, attesting to the piece's weight denomination. The surrounding field is unadorned, displaying the characteristic pitted and granular surface typical of domain cast silver currency of the late Edo period. |
