Comment

These coins were minted from April 8th to August 13th, 1776 in Thuận-Hóa, which had been captured from the Nguyễn Lords.

Interesting fact

The 1 Cash coin from the Empire of Vietnam, which was minted in 1776, features a unique design element - a small dot on the character "Thuận" (恂) in the name "Cảnh Hưng" (慶慶興). This dot is known as a "nôm" dot, and it was added to indicate the correct pronunciation of the character. This feature is quite rare in coins from this time period, and it makes the coin particularly interesting for collectors and historians.
