Tóm tắt

Vietnam's history of coinage, following its liberation from a millennium of Chinese rule, is characterized by the production of national coins. The inaugural coin, the Thái Bình Hưng Bảo of the Ðinh Dynasty (968-980), marked the beginning of this tradition. Subsequently, each ruling authority, up to the Bảo Đại Empire of the Nguyễn Dynasty—the final Vietnamese dynasty—minted and utilized their distinct round coins featuring a square hole. Concurrently, Chinese ancient coins, spanning from Wu Zhu (五珠) coins to those from the Qing Dynasty, continued to be in circulation. Additionally, starting from the 16th century, an influx of Japanese coins made their way to Vietnam. These included Chinese coins that had circulated in Japan, imitation Chinese coins produced in Japan, as well as Japanese Kanei Tsuho 寛永通寶 and Nagasaki trade coins. Consequently, Vietnamese, Chinese, and Japanese coins have historically coexisted in Vietnam. This paper presents an overview of recent archaeological surveys conducted on the coin hoard within the Hà Tĩnh Museum collection. Additionally, it explores the future prospects for the study of Vietnamese coins.
