In this video we set off in search of relics left behind in the ruins of 'Chinatown', and unearth Chinese cast Cash Coins dating back to the 17th Century and other personal relics left behind following the gold rush. For that reason, Chinese coins are not subject to fashion. Characters cast on the sides of the coin are high value for archaeology today. Chinese coins were cast which made them easy to forge, which is exactly what we tried to do! Traditional opinion names the Chinese as the first to widely use cast coins, beginning around the 11th century B.C.. The history of coins can be a little murky, because so many coins have been found across the globe. An artistic layout is not strived for. In China, the coins were cast of bronze and copper with very little intrinsic value. Lot 479 , a Hupeh Province silver “Ben Shen” 20-Cents, was the star of the classic rarities cast, a coin so rare that it was missing from all the major Chinese collections sold in recent years. The children used plasticine to make the molds and plaster for the coins. For 2000 years, from the reign of Qin Shi Huang (Shih Huang-Ti, 221-207 BC), Chinese coins consisted of cast bronzes or brass, with a central square hole. Coins in China are mass produced: until modern times, coins are cast – a prodecure which easily allows a mass production. Regarding why Chinese cash coins have square holes, the two responses you published are correct.

Such coins could be held together by a string and carried about.
