Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the Tianqi era of the Tianwan Kingdom, which was a short-lived dynasty that lasted from 1358 to 1368. The Tianwan Kingdom was established by a rebel group that overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, which was ruled by the Mongols. The Tianqi era was known for its economic and cultural achievements, including the introduction of a new currency system, which included the 1 Cash coin made of bronze. Despite its short existence, the Tianwan Kingdom played an important role in Chinese history and the development of its currency system.
