    Nice Huo Quan coins. I heard there are a number of varieties on this design, such as cake Huo Quan (thick coin), upper and lower dot on the coin, etc.

    Welcome @Win Thura Nyunt ! Chinese coins aren't my main area, but I've picked up a few over the years. Here's my collection of coins of Wang Mang, including two Huo Chuans in the bottom row:
