Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of the Daoguang Emperor, who ruled China from 1820 to 1850. This was a time of significant social and economic change in China, including the expansion of trade and commerce, and the development of new technologies. The coin's design, which features a stylized dragon and the Chinese characters for "Tongbao" and "Ili," reflects the cultural and artistic traditions of the time.
