| Beschrijving keerzijde | Six large Chinese characters arranged in two rows of three occupy the central field, reading 省足陸 / 平紋錢 (Provincial Scale Fine Silver / 6 Qian), denoting the denomination and silver fineness standard. The characters are deeply struck in a bold calligraphic style consistent with commercial bullion coinage of the late Qing period. The design is framed by a raised inner circle, with a wide beaded border forming the outermost ring on a plain flat field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Chien-Yi firm was one of several Changsha money shops that issued private silver bullion pieces during the final Qing years, filling a gap left by inconsistent official coinage in Hunan province. These shop-issued pieces circulated locally on trust — the issuing firm's reputation, not state authority, backed their value. Kann catalogued remarkably few of these Changsha private issues, and #978 is among the more obscure entries, reflecting how rarely they survived outside the region.
