<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Loong Siew, post: 2251111, member: 75799&quot;]Actually weight for chinese cast coins is but a measurement for official standard.. Most cast cash except for the long lasting series such as Ban Liang, Wu Zhu and Kai Yuans all have regnal titles or inscriptions unique to the period. The shrinkage and debasement you see are often associated with tumultuous periods in chinese history or if there are economic instability which necessitated such actions. You can see it most prevalent during the Han to Pre-Tang periods...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
