One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Cash - Tiancheng (Yuanbao) ND (926-930) from Empire of China made of Bronze weighing 3.54 g is that it was used as a form of currency during the Tang Dynasty, which was a time of significant economic growth and cultural achievement in China. The coin's design features a square hole in the center, which was used to thread a string or cord through, allowing people to carry multiple coins together. This design feature was unique to coins produced during the Tang Dynasty and is a distinct characteristic of this coin.
