Red Blue Tongzhi Wooden Coin

The inscription “同治” (Tongzhi) refers to the reign title of the Tongzhi Emperor, who ruled during the Qing dynasty in China. The Tongzhi Emperor reigned from 1861 to 1875. The phrase “實重” (Shí Zhòng) on coins typically indicates the weight and purity of the metal used in the coin.

同治實重 (Tongzhi Shí Zhòng) would likely have been produced during the Tongzhi Emperor’s reign and would have indicated that they were of a specified weight and purity. These coins were part of the currency system used during the Qing dynasty, which succeeded the Ming dynasty and lasted until the early 20th century.
