EASTERN JIN: Anonymous, 317-342, AE cash (1.42g), H-10.13 var, Shen Lang Wu Zhu ('Lord Shen's' wu zhu) type without jin component in zhu, missing the wu character due to filled mold, EF This type is attributed to Shen Chong of the House of Wu and cast after the foundation of the Eastern Jin Dynasty in 317 and is also known as the Shen Chong Wu Zhu. An old ballad contains the lines: "Elm seeds countless press in sheets, Lord Shen's green cash line town streets." The phrase implies that Lord Shen's coinage was small and light.
