Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was produced during the Jingkang era of the Southern Song dynasty, which was a time of great economic growth and cultural prosperity in China. The coin's design features the Chinese character "通" (tōng) on the obverse, which means "circulating" or "standard," and the character "宝" (bǎo) on the reverse, which means "treasure" or "precious." This coin was likely used in everyday transactions and was an important part of the economy during that time period.
