| Additional information |
Issued under Chinese occupation, not Vietnamese rule — the "Empire of Vietnam" designation here obscures the political reality that this cash coin was produced during the Ming dynasty's direct administration of Đại Việt following Yongle Emperor's 1407 annexation. The reign title Trị Bình Thánh Bảo was imposed as part of a broader sinification campaign that suppressed Vietnamese institutions, coinage traditions, and even the Vietnamese language in official contexts.
Toda's split reference across #46 and #47 reflects script and casting variations between specimens rather than distinct issuing episodes.
