| Additional information |
The Đại Bình Hưng Bảo is among the earliest coins struck by an independent Vietnamese state, issued under Đinh Tiên Hoàng after he unified the twelve warlord factions — the so-called "Twelve Lords' Rebellion" — and founded the short-lived Đinh dynasty in 968. Vietnam had circulated Chinese coinage for roughly a millennium under Tang and earlier dominion; this issue represented a deliberate break from that dependency. The dynasty itself lasted barely a decade before Đinh Tiên Hoàng was assassinated in 979, making the entire production window exceptionally narrow.
