Which coins were the most precious in Song Dynasty?

1, Jianyan Bao Tong, Jianyan Chongbao, Jianyan Yuanbao.

The casting and distribution of Jianyan Bao Tong, Jianyan Chongbao and Jianyan Yuanbao began in the first year of Jianyan (1 127), which completely conformed to the pattern of Zhao Naizu's coin casting in the Northern Song Dynasty. Take Jianyan Bao Tong as an example. There are three kinds of copper and iron coins: Xiaoping, 20% and 30%, Qian Wen seal and Kai.

Jianyan Bao Tong is the most representative coin in all versions, and there are many versions, such as seal script, big and small characters, point-built version and provincial treasure version. The number of other Xiaoping and San Qian is relatively small. It can also be seen that the circulation structure of coins at that time was mainly folded in half. Jianyan Chongbao and Jianyan Yuanbao are relatively rare, especially Jianyan Yuanbao, which is very rare and expensive.

2. Jingkang Bao Tong

Jingkang Bao Tong is one of the ancient Chinese coins. It was cast in the Song Qinzong period of the Northern Song Dynasty and belongs to the national first-class cultural relics. Jingkang Bao Tong coins are copper, iron and silver. Jingkang Bao Tong, with a diameter of 31.5mm, weighs 7g. Due to the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, the circulation of coins minted during the Jingkang period was very small, which was extremely rare from handed down and unearthed. Jingkang Bao Tong is a rare currency that collectors are looking for.
