Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Lê Văn Khôi Rebellion, which was a dynastic rebellion that took place in Vietnam from 1833 to 1834. The rebellion was led by Lê Văn Khôi, a Vietnamese prince who was dissatisfied with the ruling Nguyễn dynasty and sought to overthrow them and establish a new dynasty. The coin was likely minted as a form of currency to fund the rebellion and was made of zinc, which was a common material for coins at the time. Despite the rebellion ultimately being unsuccessful, the coin remains an interesting historical artifact and a testament to the political and economic upheaval that occurred during this period in Vietnamese history.
