| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cast copper cash coin centred on a raised-rim square perforation, around which four Chinese characters are arranged in the traditional cruciform reading order (top, right, bottom, left): 漢元通寶 (Hán Yuán Tōng Bǎo). The bold regular-script (kaishu) characters are rendered in raised relief against a flat field, separated by the inner square rim of the central aperture. The outer border is a plain raised rim with no additional ornamentation, consistent with the utilitarian cast coinage tradition of the Hồ Dynasty. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Hồ Dynasty lasted barely seven years. Hồ Quý Ly seized the Trần throne in 1400 after decades of consolidating power as a court official, declared the new dynasty, and was conquered by Ming China in 1407 — the invasion ending Vietnamese independence for the next two decades. These coins circulated during that compressed window of political rupture, struck by a regime that simultaneously introduced Vietnam's first paper currency, making the copper coinage almost secondary to the monetary experiment Hồ Quý Ly was running alongside it.
