Chinese Ancient Coin Southern Song Dynasty in the Shao Xing period (AD 1131). Hartill 17.52

The "Shaoxing Tong Bao" coins were minted during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, specifically in the Shaoxing era (1131-1162 AD). The obverse inscription is in regular script, read directly, and is said to be written by Emperor Gaozong himself. The coins come in denominations of Xiaoping (1 cash), Zhe Er (2 cash), Zhe San (3 cash), Zhe Wu (5 cash), and Zhe Shi (10 cash), with Xiaoping (1 cash) coins being relatively rare . The Zhe Wu and Zhe Shi coins with clockwise inscriptions in slim gold script are considered rare and precious. There are also iron coins in existence, with the Zhe Er coins featuring the character "Li" on the reverse side being minted in the tenth year of the Shaoxing era (1140 AD) in Lizhou. Additionally, there are coins with a bright back. Wang Yinjia's "Quan Wei Cong Tan" states, "The black-backed Shaoxing coins required more labor, and the minting quantity was relatively small. The plain-backed coins were made of inferior copper, with cost-saving measures implemented, which aligns with the physical evidence today.

“绍兴通宝”系宋高宗绍兴年间 (1131年 -1162年 )铸。面文真书,直读,传为高宗御笔。其有小平、折二、折三、折五及折十钱,其中以小平钱为少见 。折五、折十旋读瘦金体者为稀世珍品。尚有铁钱存世,折二背“利”者为绍兴十年 (1140年 )利州造,另有光背钱。王荫嘉《泉纬丛谈》曰:“绍兴钱乌背者费工,铸额较少。素背钱铜质粗劣,工料俱省,今实物相符。”

 

靖康二年正月,宋欽宗被金人軟禁。二月六日,宋欽宗被金国廢為庶人。五月一日宋高宗繼位,改元建炎元年

 

建炎三年,統制苗傅與威州刺史劉正彥发动兵变,擁立三歲之太子趙旉即位,逼宋高宗退位。史稱苗劉兵變,後旋被張浚及韓世忠平定。高宗復位後繼用建炎年號。
