The use of cash coins in traditional medical treatments in [[China]] is well documented and has been described in medical textbooks as early as the [[Song dynasty]] period where physicians commonly used the [[Tang dynasty]] period [[Kaiyuan Tongbao]] cash coins to treat a variety of illnesses and maladies. Cash coins are typically made of [[copper-alloy]]s and contain various metals in their alloys such as [[tin]] and [[lead]] which all have medicinal applications in TCM. The uses of cash coins in TCM vary as they can be ingested, applied to wounds, used as a powder, rubbed against the body to treat supposed "hot" diseases, and made into [[medicinal tea]]s. A ''[[Nature (journal)|Nature]]'' editorial described TCM as "fraught with pseudoscience", and said that the most obvious reason why it has not delivered many cures is that the majority of its treatments have no logical [[mechanism of action]].<ref name="swallow"/> The application of cash coins in traditional Chinese medicine exists independently from [[Cash coins in feng shui|their usage]] in ''[[feng shui]]'', the [[Chinese numismatic charm|use of cash coin and cash coin-like amulets]] as "lucky charms", or [[I Ching divination#Coins|their usage]] in traditional [[Chinese fortune telling]]. == Chinese cash coins == {{Main|Cash (Chinese coin)|List of Chinese cash coins by inscription}} The cash coin became the main standard currency of China in 221 BC with the [[Ban Liang]] (半兩) and would be produced until 1912 AD there with the [[Minguo Tongbao]] (民國通寳).

all major Chinese medical books that existed at the time.<ref name="Primaltrek-Chinese-Coins-and-Traditional-Chinese-Medicine"/> The book also notes that if the coin is burned [[Mercury

Old Infobox[edit]

Vietnamese cash coins in the Guangdong Province[edit]

During the middle of the 1880s there was a shortage of cash coins in the Qing dynasty province of Guangdong, to remedy this Chinese bankers who were active in Vietnam at the time started buying up zinc Vietnamese cash coins to export to Guangdong.^[1] During the narrowly defined period ranging from around 1885 to about the 1890s a large quantities of zinc Vietnamese cash coins circulated in the Guangdong Province.^[1] However, like the then-scarce Chinese cash coins, the Vietnamese cash coins brought to Guangdong would be sold and exported to overseas Chinese communities in the United States for a profit causing the demand for small denomination cash coins to remain high.^[1] It wasn't until 1889 when the Guangzhou Mint started mass-producing high-quality machine-struck brass cash coins that the Vietnamese cash coins would disappear from circulation in Guangdong.^[1]

The abandonment of the Vietnamese zinc cash coins in China was rapid and complete and by the 1890s indigenous machine-struck cash coins made of brass had fully replaced them, as everyone (even those in Vietnam) always preferred the brass or other copper-alloy cash coins to those made of zinc.^[1] Likewise, Chinese customers in the American state of California would have been similarly discriminating quickly ending the demand for zinc Vietnamese cash coins outside of Vietnam.^[1] This is also why Vietnamese cash coins are occasionally found in Chinese and overseas Chinese coin hoards dating to the 1880s and later (but never before as up until that point Vietnamese cash coins exclusively circulated in Vietnam).^[1]

The Vietnamese cash coins found in Guangdong from this period (and among overseas Guangdongers) range from the Gia Long to the Tự Đức period.^[1]
