Tibet minted its own currency during the era of independence (1912-1951). This uniquely beautiful currency unit is copper 1 Sho and was in circulation between the years 1918-1928. In the 19th century Tibetan coins were minted by hand, a process gradually replaced in the early 20's of the 20th century by water or man-powered machines. All Tibetan coins are recognizable by their exceptional beauty and sophisticated design. A majority of the them, including this one, are inscribed with the cycle and the year in which they were struck. The front of this coin features an image of a Snow Lion, a symbol of fearlessness, unconditional cheerfulness, east and the earth element. This celestial creature is one of the Four Dignities in Tibetan tradition. All coins and tokens have been in circulation for a number of years. Therefore you may receive one with a different date and slight variations in wear, although all coins are in the same condition as pictured. 30 days money back guarantee.
