Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was produced during the Northern Song dynasty, which was a time of great economic growth and cultural achievement in China. The coin's design, featuring the Chinese character "Zhiping" (meaning "currency") and the reign title "Tongbao" (meaning "Unified Treasure"), reflects the government's efforts to standardize currency and promote economic stability during this period.
