Yuan Dynasty. Shun (Toghon Temur) (1333-1368) 2 Qian 5 Fen ND (from 1350) Certified 80 by Gong Bo Grading, Hartill-19.123. 69.7mm. 90.5gm. With Ji above, possibly from Ji An in Jiangxi (Kiangsi Province). An amazing coin featuring another unusual denomination, similar to the previous lot, that rarely comes up for sale. This incredible selection with clear characters and lovely mocha patina would make an amazing accompaniment with the previous piece, but each item is sure to be hotly contested on their own as the opportunity to own these types are few and far between. Minted in a period of economic reform to replace small-sized coins with paper money and larger Cash coins. The paper money became too troublesome due to its poor quality and difficulties to redeem, leading to exponential inflation and a widespread loss of confidence in the monetary system.
