1 Cash - Anonymous Kaiyuan Tongbao, Yue, with dot

The Yue mint operated in what is now Zhejiang province during the fractious final decades of Tang rule, a period when provincial military governors — the jiedushi — effectively controlled their own revenues and minting operations with minimal oversight from a weakened central court. The dot on the reverse is a positional mark identifying this specific workshop within the Yue casting operation, not a later addition or die flaw. Hartill's classification of these late Tang provincials remains the standard reference precisely because central records for this period are so fragmentary.
