Description: Your choice of 2 zinc coins with legend: THAI BINH THONG BAO. Thought to be issue of undetermined Nguyen Lord. These coins are private issues from possibly ca 1736.Any coin should satisfy the type collector. A specialist may notice the minor differences to deserve the differing GCC #s. While we refer to these coins as being ZINC as is often true, there are however many such coins that can be mostly lead or various mixtures of zinc, tin and lead. Generically we call them all zinc coins. Descriptions taken from various references; but as with many Vietnam cash coins, references do not necessarily agree on any given coin.
