| Obverse description | Plain field bearing six large Chinese characters arranged in two horizontal rows within a recessed central disc, identifying the issuing merchant firm. The legend reads 長乾字 / 沙益號 (Changsha Chien-Yi Firm), rendered in bold, brushstroke-style relief script. The central disc is bordered by a raised inner ring, itself surrounded by a prominent beaded border running along the coin's periphery. The design is purely epigraphic, with no pictorial devices or additional ornamentation. |
