Introduction to knowledge
"Fuchang Chongbao" is a coin cast in Fuchang by Liu Yu, the puppet regime of Jin Dynasty (the regime supported by Jin people). Only 30% off, and 20% off "Fuchang Bao Tong" Xiaoping and "Fuchang Yuanbao", both genuine seals, with a bare back and a diameter of about 35mm. Qian Wen is clear and delicate, and his calligraphy is exquisite.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, the prefect of Jinan rose up and surrendered to Jin. In the fourth year of Jianyan (1 130), he was made a puppet by Jin people. At that time, Emperor Taizong of Jin (Wan) conferred the imperial edict: "Today is a son, both the king of neighboring countries and the son of the great dynasty." The name of the country is Qi, and the year number is Fuchang. It was originally the capital of Daming House and later moved to Bianjing. In the seventh year of Shaoxing (1 137), Yue Fei used a trick to get the gold master to abolish his emperor's name and change it to Shu Wang. Liu Yu was emperor for eight years, which was called pseudo-Qi in history. During the Shaoxing period, Liu Yu, the son of Liu Yu, was ordered by the gold master to invade the Song Dynasty in three ways. Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and other generals in the Southern Song Dynasty fought hard and recovered a large area of river land. In the sixth year of Shaoxing (1 136), Xizong Hongyan succeeded to the throne. At this time, the pseudo-Qi regime was useless, and the pseudo-Qi army was defeated by the lotus pond (now Dingyuan, Anhui), making a big fuss. In the seventh year of Shaoxing (1 137), it was abandoned by Jin. He and his son lived in (now Bahrain, Zuo Qi, Liaoning) under the escort of Jin, and then died here.
The year number used by the puppet Qi people in Fuchengmen, Hebei Province was "Fuchang", while the Qi emperor used Liao money and Song money in eight years. For example, reading Tongdian said, "Money from the old Liao and Song Dynasties was used at the beginning of Jin Dynasty, money from Qi Fuchang and money from Emperor Taizong at the end of the day ...". Later, I felt that the old money was insufficient, but I made Fuchang money in imitation of Daguan money. Fuchang money has six formats: authentic and printed. The casting of Fuchang money ended the history of not casting copper money for more than 40 years in the early Jin Dynasty, which can be regarded as the first casting of money in the Jin Dynasty. Fuchang's is very beautiful, with fine casting, exquisite beauty and rich legacy. Because Liu Yu's puppet regime has not existed for a long time, and the circulation area of Fuchang coins is basically the same as that of the puppet regime, which is limited to the northern region, the number of coins minted and issued will certainly not be too much, and it is rare to survive in the world. Among them, the heavy precious seal money is rare, the calligraphy is smooth and vivid, the words are beautiful, the lines are round and simple, the rigidity and softness are combined, seamless and exquisite, and the production technology is superb. There are only a few coins cast by Baoxi, and only a handful have been handed down.
