| Reverse description | Plain field surrounding a raised-rimmed central square perforation, with six bold Chinese characters arranged in the four cardinal positions around the hole. The legend reads '大法國之安南 當二' in the traditional cash-coin format: '大法國之安南' (Great France's Annam) distributed at the right and left, and '當二' (worth two) placed below the aperture. The characters are rendered in a brushwork-inspired style consistent with Vietnamese cash coin conventions adapted for French colonial use. |
