1 Cash - Xiangfu Yuanbao, with dot

The Xiangfu Yuanbao takes its name from the Xiangfu reign period of Emperor Zhenzong of the Song dynasty — a ruler whose reign is better remembered for the humiliating Treaty of Shanyuan in 1005, which committed the Song court to annual payments of silk and silver to the Liao dynasty rather than risk further military confrontation. The dot variety referenced here as Hartill 16.53 represents one of the minor workshop differentiators used across Song cash production, where small punched marks helped administrators track output from specific casting operations.
