Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Cash - Tianzan (Tongbao) ND (922-926) from Liao dynasty (Tatar dynasties) made of Bronze is that it features a unique blend of Chinese and Turkic elements in its design. The obverse side of the coin bears the Chinese characters "天造" (Tian Zao), which means "Heavenly Creation," while the reverse side features a stylized Turkic tamga symbol, which was a common motif in Liao dynasty coinage. This blending of cultural influences reflects the multicultural nature of the Liao dynasty, which was established by the Khitan people but also incorporated elements from other cultures, such as Buddhism and Islam.
