| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck under King Yeongjo during the mid-Joseon period, the 2 Mun coinage was part of a broader effort to expand copper and brass cash circulation in a kingdom that had long struggled to sustain a functioning coin economy — much of the population still defaulted to rice and cloth as exchange media well into the eighteenth century. The Joseon government operated multiple casting furnaces across the country, and the resulting coins vary considerably in alloy quality and flan preparation depending on which foundry produced them.
KM#294 is distinguished by its two-mun denomination, a value increment introduced to facilitate larger transactions without resorting to bundles of single-mun pieces.
