Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A payment box seized by the French authorities in the Vietnamese province of Bình-Ðịnh in the year 1884 featuring strings of cash coins including some larger strings of very large cash coins. Quote: "the coin of 2 mạch of the Currency of Paris comes from the payment box seized about 1884 in the province of Bình-Ðịnh(24), which seems to indicate that a certain number of these coins were indeed launched in circulation. (24) This box contained, in addition to this coin, a binding of 5 mạch of zinc currencies of Minh Mạng, 5 ligatures of 10 coins of a 1 mạch, two đồng sao of 60 văn, a ligature of 10 mạch of Chinese coins of Tong Zhi and Guang Xu; one found also 5 ligatures of mixed of currencies of Chinese and Vietnamese and more than 600 coins in bulk (AMM: 74-75). 25. It had six ingots as well there and not seven. An ingot of 5 mạch is shown as number 338 by Schroeder who gives neither weight of them nor illustration to indicates that this coin belongs to the treasure of Hue, but it is not mentioned in the inventory of the treasure and does not appear in the current collections of the Currency of Paris. The works that announce this ingot (Đo 246; World Corners; 1931) do it only while being based on only the writings of Schroeder."
