| Reverse description | The reverse bears a central horizontal inscription of four Chinese ideograms denoting the denomination and weight standard, flanked on each side by a single Manchu word, together reading to identify the issuing province and the coin's value in Manchu script. Stylized outlined clouds occupy each corner of the field, a decorative motif common to Kirin machine-struck bullion issues of the Guangxu era. The overall layout is balanced and symmetrical, with the inscriptions occupying the central band and the cloud ornaments providing decorative framing in the quadrants. |
