| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cast bronze cash-type coin featuring four Chinese characters arranged around a central square hole in the classic cross-pattern. Reading top-to-bottom and right-to-left, the inscription reads 常平通寶 (Sangpyeong Tongbo), identifying this as currency issued under the Sangpyeong (Ever-Normal) system of the Korean Joseon Dynasty. The characters are rendered in regular script (kaishu) with clearly defined strokes. The field is plain, with no additional decorative elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "circle at left" designation identifies a furnace mark used by one of the many government bureaus authorized to strike cash coins during the Yeongjo reign. Korea's mun coinage was produced across a fragmented network of minting offices — military commands, royal guards units, civil ministries — each assigned distinct symbols to differentiate output. This organizational sprawl was a deliberate fiscal response to chronic copper shortages and the state's inability to centralize production.
KM#343 is among the more numerous varieties from this period, though attribution between furnace marks remains contested in older references.
