MING: Hong Zhi, 1488-1505, AE cash (6g), H-, tai ping tong bao, graded 80 by GBCA Grading Company, F-VF, ex Dr. Dirk Löer Collection. During the Hongzhi period (1488-1505), various tribes in the former territories of the Dali Kingdom (in present-day Yunnan and Guizhou) issued their own cash coins with the permission of the Ming government. These tribal issues are always crudely cast with a relatively thick flan and barbarous calligraphy, and the names on the coins were place names instead of reign titles according to Hartill. Several different inscriptional types are known so far.
