Obverse description Left-facing bust of the Guangxu Emperor depicted in three-quarter profile, wearing a traditional Manchu court hat adorned with ornamental detail. The effigy is rendered in a Western-influenced engraving style, with fine drapery visible at the shoulder. The portrait is centrally positioned within a beaded border, with the field largely unlettered, emphasizing the imperial likeness. The overall style reflects the Szechuan Mint's adaptation of the Tibetan rupee design for trade coinage.
