Why does the ancient chinese coin have a hole in the middle?
Frigging Ask.com wont tell me the answer.
The coin’s shape is symbolic. The round outside represents heaven (the universe) and the square center hole represents China (Earth). The symbol for country in China is surrounded by a square. Originally money was moved as knives and the end of the knife had a hole to hang on the bench or table. Soon the knife part disappeared and only the “handle” or the coin remained.
