Tingle Dangle Money Öffentlichkeit Deposited
The name given to a variety of Chinese metallic currency on ac- count of their bridgelike appearance. Ramsden, who describes these pieces in de- tail, Chinese Early Barter and Uninscribed Money,1912 (pp. 29-32), adds, "I would suggest the name of Tingle Dangle as more appropriate, since they will probably result to be miniature token representatives of the larger musical instruments which are still to be seen in certain parts of China." The Chinese name for Bridge Money is Kiao Pi, and for Tingle Dangle money is King Shih Pi.
