CHINESE GUANGXU PORTRAIT SILVER MEDAL L. 4 cm. Weight 20 grams. A Chinese Guangxu portrait silver medal, measuring 4 cm in diameter and weighing 20 grams. Struck in fine silver, this circular medallion features a detailed obverse relief portrait of the Guangxu Emperor, depicted wearing a Manchu official hat and court robes adorned with beaded necklaces (chaozhu). The portrait is framed by a delicate beaded border, with crisp detailing capturing the facial features and imperial regalia. The aged patina and soft wear attest to its historical authenticity. Reflecting late Qing dynasty numismatic craftsmanship, this medal embodies the political iconography and artistic style of the period, serving as a tangible artifact of China’s imperial history.
