What are the types of money in the Tang Dynasty? What was the development and change of money in Tang Dynasty? In the Tang Dynasty, silver coins had not yet become a common currency. When people used bronze or silk as money, paper money did not appear, "money silk". In the fourth year of Wude, Li Yuan "paid off 5 baht and implemented the Kaiyuan currency exchange rate", that is, Li Yuan's regime cancelled the effectiveness of 5 baht coins that existed in this city from the beginning of Emperor Wu and began to use RMB coins. Kaiyuan Bao Tong, also known as Kaiyuanbao, was the first legal tender in the Tang Dynasty, the longest currency in circulation in the whole Tang Dynasty, and the largest currency issued. Mining copper requires a little gold and silver to make money (given by the emperor, not circulating, extremely rare and precious). According to the coin casting surface and production time, it can be divided into three categories: coins discovered in the early days should be well-made and of the same size, referring to exquisite monetary products; A medium-term coin with an image on the back of the coin, usually with star-shaped or zigzag stripes; Later, the coins found were rough and slightly different in quality, which was caused by the decline of the Tang Dynasty.

On the coins with the word "Kaiyuan", Ouyang, a great calligrapher, demanded that the font of "outstanding personality and publicity" was of great significance for identification and collection, so collectors in previous dynasties gave priority. Since the Tang Dynasty was the golden age of China, people in China paid attention to the era of eliminating evil and accumulating wealth. Grains and fabrics. Food and clothes are the most basic survival needs of human beings, so fabric itself is a very valuable currency, which can be consumed immediately after quitting the exchange. In turbulent times, they are more popular than any metal currency. They didn't eat or eat, and they died of hunger and cold, right?

"Silk, silk, cloth, groceries, etc. All transactions are common ... If goods and money are used in combination, breaking the law is a crime. " Government taxes, such as "tax in kind", also pay for silk. The military expenditure reaches hundreds of thousands of silks at a time. In high school, both brothers knew that a white semi-robot and a troublesome old man were put to death with charcoal by eunuchs, but he was not white either: half was red line and the other half was Zhang, which was charcoal to bulls. I didn't know how to hammer, so I read poems to scold those dead eunuchs and traded HongLing for coal. Later, I learned that the money was given.

Half of them are red, and the other half are written by money, saying that old people lose money if they give less money, but the earliest use of silver coins in China was in the Tang Dynasty, but the silver coin dynasty in China did not participate in the market circulation. It is only used to collect all taxes, that is, taxes and silver. And what money did the Tang Dynasty use for market circulation? In the fourth year of Tang Wude, Li Yuan ordered the cancellation of the five-coin transaction and the opening of the RMB River. Kaiyuan Baotong has a large number of chastity castings with excellent workmanship, and the weight and material are all high-quality bronze. All calligraphy books, such as "Characters and Etiquette", "Zhuanli Font" and "Italic", have had a far-reaching impact on later coins.
