Comment
The Slender Gold script was the personal calligraphy style of the Emperor.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency during the Northern Song Dynasty in ancient China, and it features a unique square hole in the center, which was used to thread a string through, allowing people to carry multiple coins together.
