| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cast brass cash coin with a central square perforation surrounded by a raised square boss. The four-character reign legend 常平通寶 (Sangpyong T'ongbo, meaning 'Ever-Normal Circulating Treasure') is arranged in the traditional cruciform fashion, reading top-to-bottom and right-to-left around the central aperture, rendered in regular script (kaishu). The characters are bold and well-formed in relief against a flat inner field, enclosed within a plain raised rim. The surface displays an aged patina of dark brown and verdigris green typical of cast Joseon-period coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Sŏnhyech'ŏng was established in 1608 to administer the taedongpŏp reform, which replaced the chaotic system of local tribute payments with a standardized tax collected in rice, cloth, or coin. By the early nineteenth century the agency had become one of the primary minting authorities in Joseon, issuing cash coins to fund its own procurement operations rather than drawing on central treasury resources. This particular issue dates to a period when dozens of government offices held independent minting rights, producing the bewildering institutional variety that defines late Joseon cash coinage.
