Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Jin (350 BC - 250 BC) from State of Han (Warring States) made of Bronze is that it features a unique combination of both animal and human figures on its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized dragon, while the reverse side features a human figure surrounded by a ring of small animals. This blend of motifs reflects the cultural and religious beliefs of the time, and sets this coin apart from other coins of the Warring States period.
