Summary[edit]
DescriptionKaiyuan Tongzhong (開元通重) - Unknown origin (Rubbing).jpg |
English: There is unique a later made variant of the Kaiyuan Tongbao with the inscription Kaiyuan Zhongtong (開元通重), this inscription is quite unusual because typically the character "Tong" (通) indicates that a cash coin has a denomination of 1 wén, while the character "Zhong" (重) typically means that a cash coin was valued at 10 wén.[1] The person who owns this unique cash coin thinks that whoever made the cash coin mould was likely just careless and they mistakenly used "重" instead "寶" and speculates that the Kaiyuan Zhongtong may be the earliest known specimen of any Chinese cash coin having such a clerical error to have been discovered.[1] If the Kaiyuan Zhongtong was produced due to an error in the production of its mould nobody at the time of its production either noticed or seemed to care about its inscription, though it is likely that only a small number of cash coins with this inscription were cast from the mould as only a single specimen has ever been found (as of 2021).[1]
