| Obverse description | The obverse features four large Chinese characters in raised relief arranged around a central square hole, reading 年年有餘 (surplus every year), one character in each quadrant. The granulated field provides textural contrast against the boldly cast legend, and the design is framed by a plain raised rim. |
