Arrow coins (1464)[edit]

In the year 1464, King Sejo had introduced a new form of currency known as the "arrow coin" (箭幣; 전폐, chŏn p'ye). This currency was shaped like an arrowhead which allowed it to be used as a medium of exchange during times of peace and as a weapon when the country was fighting another war.^[1]

The royal instructions regarding the "arrow coin" and how it should be circulated can be translated as the following excerpt:^[2]

"Different moneys were used in different reigns but each one suits its time. The arrow coin, though never used by the ancients, will surely prove useful to a warlike country and we see no reason why it should not be used."

- Mun Heun Pi Ko (文猷備考, 문유비고)

The blade of the "arrow coin" resembled a leaf of a willow tree and its stem was inscribed with the text P'albang T'onghwa (八方通寶; 팔방통보, which could be translated as either "currency in eight directions" or "eight directions universal money") this text indicated that the "arrow coin" was legal tender throughout Korea.^[1]

The arrowhead had a length of 55 millimeters long and its stem was an additional 52 millimeters making the "arrow coin" 107 millimeters long. 1 "arrow coin" was nominally worth 4 pieces of Joseon era paper money.^[1]

The new currency did not receive the support of the Korean people causing the failure of yet another attempt to establish a money-based economy in Korea to fail. No surviving specimens of the Korean "arrow coin" ave ever been discovered.^[1]
