1 Cash - Thuận Thiên Đại Bảo

Thuận Thiên was the reign title adopted by Lý Công Uẩn after founding the Lý dynasty in 1009 — the first long-ruling native dynasty to consolidate control over the Red River Delta following centuries of Chinese domination. The decision to relocate the capital from Hoa Lư to Thăng Long (present-day Hanoi) in 1010 was accompanied by administrative reforms that included issuing indigenous coinage, marking a deliberate break from reliance on imported Tang and Song cash.

Toda's catalog remains the foundational reference for early Vietnamese cash, though attributions for Lý-period issues are complicated by the near-identical casting conventions borrowed from Song China.
