| "Wuzhu"
coins were continuously used in the early Tang dynasty. The emergence
of "Kaiyuan Tongbao" coins in A.D. 621 marked the end of
the "Zhu" and "Liang" currency systems.Coin casting
and circulation entered a chaotic period during the period of Five
dynasties and the Ten States. Inferior quality lead and tin coins
were circulated in the market. The "Duiqian" currency system
(two coins with same name, size and weight, but differ in script)
of the Southern Tang dynasty continued during the Song dynasty. |
