Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was produced during a time of great change and turmoil in Vietnam. The Empire of Vietnam, also known as the Tây Sơn dynasty, was a short-lived but significant period in Vietnamese history, marked by the rise of the Tây Sơn brothers, who overthrew the ruling Nguyễn dynasty and established their own rule. This coin was minted during the reign of Thái Đức (also known as Thông Bảo), who ruled from 1778 to 1788 and was known for his efforts to modernize and centralize the government. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of Vietnamese history and a testament to the resilience of the Vietnamese people.
