Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Emperor Zhangzong, who was the third emperor of the Jin dynasty and ruled from 1204 to 1208. During his reign, the Jin dynasty was facing threats from both domestic and foreign enemies, and the emperor issued a number of coins, including this one, to help finance the military and stabilize the economy. Despite the challenges of the time, this coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the people who created it.
