Summary
| Description |
English: Rebel 阮 Nguyen. 1381-1382.
King 廢帝 PHE-DE, whose treasury was exhausted owing to the heavy expenses incurred in the prosecution of the war on the frontiers, ordered the taxes to be raised. This measure caused great discontent among the people, and the province of 北江 Bac-giang revolted under a man of low extraction called 阮 NGUYEN, who in the 8th moon proclaimed himself king under the name of 熙元 HI-NGUYEN. Soon afterwards troops came to pacify the province, and at the beginning of 1382 Hi-nguyen disappeared. No. 26. (Barker: 118.1-118.2) Obverse: 熙元通寶 Hi-nguyen-thong-bao. The characters 元 nguyen and 寶 bao are written in the seal form. Reverse: without rim. Coin cast by Hi-nguyen. |
