Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Cash - Yongli (Tongbao) ND (1646-1659) from Southern Ming regimes (Empire of China) made of Bronze weighing 3.50 g is that it was used as a form of currency during a time of great social and economic change in China. The Southern Ming regime was established in 1646 after the fall of the Ming dynasty, and it was a time of political instability and foreign invasion. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a stable form of currency and was widely used in trade and commerce. Its design features the Chinese character " tongbao" which means "money" or "currency" and it's a symbol of the rich history and culture of China.
