1 Cash - Cảnh Hưng Thông Bảo, Seal script, with dot

Cảnh Hưng was the longest-reigning ruler of the Later Lê dynasty, nominally on the throne from 1740 to 1786, though real power rested with the Trịnh lords throughout. The sheer volume of cash coinage produced under his reign name is staggering — Barker records dozens of distinct varieties, the result of decades of output across multiple casting facilities with inconsistent supervision. The dot variant catalogued here represents exactly the kind of minor positional addition that distinguishes one casting run from another, likely introduced at a provincial furnace rather than the central operation in Thăng Long.
