Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a crescent symbol on one side, which is a nod to the Islamic influence in Vietnam during the 18th century. This coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Thái Đức, who ruled the Empire of Vietnam from 1778 to 1788. The use of the crescent symbol on the coin reflects the religious diversity of the time and highlights the cultural exchange between Vietnam and other regions.
