CHINESE COINS


To the Chinese, the coins from the reigns of the Emperors of the Ching dynasty represent wealth and prosperity. These old coins are used as amulets for Feng Shui purposes even until today.
The coin has a square hole in the center. The circular shape of the coin symbolizes Heaven while the square hole represents the Earth. When used by humans, they represent the cosmic trinity of luck of "Heaven-Earth-Man". And when tied together with a red thread, the coins are regarded as very auspicious wealth magnets. It is said that putting them in your wallets or purse would help to energise them for money luck.
