Jiaqing Tongbao was cast in the Jiaqing period of Renzong in Qing Dynasty (1796-182).
the diameter of money is 2.2-2.6cm, and the weight is 2-4g. The money-faced character "Jiaqing Tongbao" is written in regular script and read directly from top to bottom to right and left.

The auspicious words are: "Long live the son of heaven", "Peace and security for the country", "Peace in the world", "Wealth generated every day", "Long live Jiaqing", "Only harmony and uniqueness", "If it is sold three times" and "Four directions come to congratulate".
Overview of Jiaqing Tongbao
Jiaqing has been in office for 25 years, and his achievements are mediocre.
Jiaqing Dynasty made a lot of money, and ordinary products were ignored, so few of them can be called treasures. For example, the carved mothers of Baoquan and Baoyuan Second Bureau, which were made by the central government and the Ministry of Industry, are relatively precious. If the carved mothers of local bureaus are rare, they will survive in the world. Except for some in the national units such as the Museum of Chinese History, only one carved mother of Baosu with a wide margin and a flat style can be seen in private places. It can be described as real money. Other special Jiaqing coins are rare products, such as the wide-margin-folded second-type money of local bureaus, so Baozhi Bureau is the largest and heavy, but there have been many forgeries in recent years. Baochuan Bureau saw that there were large-scale sample coins and cast coins with wide margins, which were extremely exquisite, with a diameter of 2.75 cm. Jiaqing palace money has various names, some of which are carved with white jade, and the seal script is Qian Wen, with excellent materials.
Jiaqing Tongbao Back World Peace is divided into two types: large-scale and super-large-scale with mother money. Ten years ago, this super-large world peace mother money was only sold for 2, yuan. Jiaqing Wannian Palace Money used to be common, and sometimes it can be found in a large string of ordinary Qing money, with various auspicious words on its back, which is becoming less and less common this year.
Jiaqing Tongbao features
During Jiaqing, some regular script Qian Wen appeared, such as Jiaqing Wanshou's regular script, which has two styles: bare back and giant back, which may have been cast in southwest China. According to the money-making system since the early Qing Dynasty, calligraphy was not paid attention to, but Xiaoping of Jiaqing Baoqian Bureau had a regular script, Qian Wen, which was beautifully and neatly written, which was refreshing.
There are also cursive Qian Wen in Jiaqing Qianbei, such as Guigui in Jiaqing Tongbao Back, Kangkang and Shoushou, all of which are cursive in the right hand and left hand. It is estimated that they also belong to the nature of palace money.
In addition, Jiaqing Tongbao is full of Chinese and Guikuanyuan-style coins. The sculptor is very skilled, and there are not many genuine products, but only one mother coin is seen. Although Gui is the abbreviation of Guangxi Province, it seems that the money was made by the central household department. It is said that the above-mentioned Jiaqing back Gui and other money are hung in the queen's bedroom to express the idea of having a baby early.
