Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the Jingkang era of the Southern Song Dynasty in China, which was a time of great economic growth and cultural prosperity. The coin features the seal script characters "Yuanbao" on one side and "Jingkang" on the other, indicating its denomination and the reign period in which it was minted. Despite being made of bronze, this coin was still considered a valuable form of currency during its time and was widely used in trade and commerce.
