Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Xi Zhou (Western Zhou) coin is that it features a unique square hole in the center, which was used to thread a cord or string through, allowing the coin to be worn as a pendant or carried as an amulet. This design element was believed to bring good luck and protection to the bearer.
