Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency during the Liao dynasty, which was a time of great cultural and economic exchange between China and other parts of Asia. The coin's design features a square hole in the center, which was used to string multiple coins together for ease of use in trade and commerce. Additionally, the coin's bronze material and relatively small weight made it a practical and durable form of currency for everyday transactions.
