It is a part of the Five Emperors' coins, representing the earth element and possessing the power to ward off evil. First minted in the first year of Yongzheng's reign (1723), it succeeded the coins from the reigns of Shunzhi and Kangxi, becoming the third generation of Qing currency. The inscriptions on the Yongzheng Tongbao hold significant historical importance, setting the style for Qing dynasty coin inscriptions for over 180 years. It is among the scarcest in terms of quantity and the simplest in design among Qing dynasty coins. However, due to its standardized, well-crafted, relatively large diameter, exquisite workmanship, and uniform, neat characters, it is highly favored by collectors. Emperor Yongzheng considered currency as a national treasure. Hence, the Yongzheng Tongbao followed the fourth style of Shunzhi Tongbao, featuring the Manchu character "宝" (treasure) on the left and the Manchu characters for the mint name on the right. During the Yongzheng era, a system was established where each province had a bureau, centrally governed by the central authority, resulting in relatively standardized inscriptions on the coins 雍正通宝雍正通宝是清代钱币，用黄铜铸造，做工精良，雍正通宝现为五帝钱的一部分，五行属土，有辟邪的功效。始铸于雍正元年（1723年），是继顺治、康熙后的第三代清钱币。 雍正通宝的钱文具有划时代的意义，它奠定了清朝此后一百八十余年的钱文风格。是清代钱币中相对数量最少、版式最简的一种制钱，但是由于其规范、精整，直径较大，做工精美，文字规整统一，故深受收藏者喜爱。雍正皇帝认为，钱币是国家之宝，故雍正通宝仿照顺治通宝第四式，左面为满文“宝”字，右面为满文钱局名称。雍正年间实现了每省一局的规制，由中央统一主导，故钱文比较统一。
