Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Chinese and Tibetan influences in its design. The use of Regular script and the presence of a dot on the coin suggest a strong Chinese influence, while the Tatar dynasties' connection to Tibet is also evident in the coin's design. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex history and cultural exchange that occurred during the Western Xia Empire's reign.
