The Later Zhao Dynasty was ruled by the Jie tribe, one of the Five Barbarians who overthrew the Western Jin Dynasty and established their own kingdom. This type was cast by Emperor Shi Le in 319 at Xiangguo (now Xingtai in Hebei) with a weight of 4 zhu. They are known as the Cash of Riches - keeping one piece of this type was said to bring great wealth. However, the historical record states that the people were displeased, and that in the end the coins did not circulate.
