Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued by the Tianwan Kingdom, which was a short-lived dynasty that lasted only from 1359 to 1360. Despite its brief existence, the kingdom was able to produce a range of coins, including the 2 Cash - Tianding (Tongbao) coin made of bronze. This coin's design and materials reflect the kingdom's attempt to establish its own currency and economic system, despite its tumultuous history.
