Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Emperor Đại Định, who ruled the Empire of Vietnam from 1368 to 1370. This coin is a rare example of a private issue coin from that time period, and its design and materials reflect the influence of Chinese currency on Vietnamese coinage during that era.
