Chinese coins
If we talk about the symbols that ancient Chinese coins carry, then initially it is a symbol of unity between Earth and Heaven. The Earth is symbolized by the square cutout inside the coin, and the Sky by its round shape. Usually the amulets of ancient Chinese coins in Feng Shui are made of copper alloy. In fact, since the 11th century. BC e. they were used in ancient China as money. Now, of course, such coins are out of monetary use. But to this day, respectful respect has been preserved for the hieroglyphs depicted on coins.
What do Chinese Feng Shui coins look like and what do they symbolize?
Two sides of the Feng Shui coin
Both sides of the coin symbolize a different type of energy. It is believed that on one side of the coin, Yang energy predominates, and on the other, Yin energy predominates. On the Yang side, the coin shows 4 hieroglyphs, which indicates which dynasty the coin belonged to. On the Yin side, only 2 signs are depicted. Depending on which emperor the coin was minted, the ruler’s motto could be additionally indicated on it.
Combining the energy of Yang and Yin, Chinese Feng Shui coins activate the energy of abundance, bringing wealth and good luck. These coins are a kind of talismans for the harmonization of space, time and energy flows.
The name of Chinese coins “quan” came to us from ancient times; the literal translation of this word is understood as “source”. By using ancient Chinese coins arranged in a circle and one coin in the center, you can activate the source of integrity and well-being.
There are many ways to use coins in Feng Shui, in some cases talismans made from ancient coins are even worn on the body. An example is amulet coins with the image of a dragon and a phoenix, which attract good luck and protect against dark forces. It is also believed that the history of the appearance of the talisman in the form of ancient Chinese coins began almost immediately after the coins came out of monetary circulation.
Coins of ancient China
In Ancient China, money had its own history, significantly different from the history of coins of other civilizations. First, commodity money appeared, one of them were cowrie shells. The hieroglyph that resembled the features of this shell also belonged to other hieroglyphs associated with the market and trade. Also in the economy of ancient China, metal ingots were used, on which there were no inscriptions. Later, so-called scissor coins began to be cast. They were called that because they looked similar to scissors. Scissor coins were replaced by copper disks, which already had inscriptions indicating the denomination.
In the 3rd century BC, the Chinese emperor Qin Shi Huang carried out a monetary reform, during which he banned the use of any figured coins, as well as the use of commodity money - grain, silk, cowrie shells, etc. Instead, it issues new coins with a square hole. The coin had a denomination of half a liang, in other words, a coin of half a unit of weight called a liang. However, a coin with a denomination of half a lan turned out to be not a very good idea, since the coin deteriorated over time and lost its weight.
The coins of Ancient China differ significantly from the coin type of all other ancient states. The currency of the time was prohibited from displaying the portrait or name of the reigning emperor, but instead used their motto referring to their throne. The second main difference is the use of only copper and bronze coins, and only in rare cases the addition of gold and silver bars. Mainly, the coin in ancient China was a lever of government and propaganda, and each new arrival of the emperor was marked by a new motto.
The coins of Ancient China are more of a historical value, a memory of past years - so to speak. However, they look no less solid and impressive than other numismatic collectibles.
About ten years ago, bookmakers even bet on the difference in the cost of coins of Ancient China and coins of Ancient Greece, it turned out that despite the fact that the number of coins of Ancient China significantly exceeds the circulation of coins of Ancient Greece, they cost several times more at auctions, from -because of their age, the history they saw at the beginning of centuries of ancient civilization, and the wise emperors of Ancient China.
