One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Cash - Dali (Yuanbao; with crescents) ND (766-779) from Empire of China made of Bronze weighing 3.23 g is that it features a unique design element - crescents on both sides of the coin. This design was used during the reign of Emperor Daizong of Tang, who ruled from 762 to 780 AD. The crescents were believed to symbolize the harmony between the heaven and the earth, and were also seen as a representation of the Islamic influence on Chinese culture during that time.
