The full era name is Dazhongxiangfu.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Cash - Xiangfu (Yuanbao) ND (1008-1016) from Empire of China made of Bronze weighing 3.23 g is that it was used as a form of currency during the Northern Song Dynasty, which was a time of great economic growth and cultural achievement in China. The coin's design features a square hole in the center, which was used to string multiple coins together for ease of use in transactions. Additionally, the coin's bronze composition was a deliberate choice by the government to reduce the cost of production, as bronze was a less expensive material than other metals used in coinage at the time.
