Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency during the Western Xia Empire, which was a short-lived empire that existed in the early 13th century in what is now northwest China. Despite its brief existence, the Western Xia Empire was known for its advanced agriculture, architecture, and art, and its coins, like the 1 Cash - Huangjiang (Yuanbao; Regular script) ND (1210-1211), are highly sought after by collectors today.
