Comments

In the year 1260, Kublai Khan established three currencies: the first backed by silk, the second backed by silver and gold made of silk, and the third backed by silver and gold made of mulberry bark.

These second issued seem to have circulated much, and were quickly replaced with the regular Zhongtong issues.
