They have a hole in them, which allowed to owner to string them onto a belt (like a tool belt), making them easy to carry. Literature, poetry and philosophy flourished during the Han dynasty. There were a lot of good things to spend your money on, so it's hard to believe that any of these coins survived. Your coin is over 2,000 years old, but you'll be amazed at the low price. Comes in a black box with a certificate of authenticity.
