In 1433, because of the devaluation of paper money, copper coins came into use again. Casting was divided between the Boards of Works of the two capitals, and the branch mints in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, and Guangdong. After 1435, there was no official casting for seventy years and private coining proliferated.
