This is a Chinese amulet coin used to enhance one’s luck, status, and wealth, and it was often used as an amulet by ancient officials. After being smelted from ancient copper coins, it can also serve as a psychological anchor when facing workplace pressure. Coins with characters on both sides usually form a series.
The front of the coin has the words “Promotion in official position”, which can be understood as: Promoting one’s official rank and title. This idiom was first seen in “The Biography of Consort Li of Zhangzong in the History of the Jin Dynasty”, where it says “Flying towards the inside means promotion in official position and salary”. Later, it was strengthened by literary works such as “Two Collections of the West Lake” by Zhou Ji in the Ming Dynasty and has become a classic expression for promotion in the officialdom, symbolizing the leap of power and the breakthrough of social status. Its core logic combines the Confucian concept of “One who excels in learning can become an official” with the Taoist image of “Ascension”, pointing not only to worldly fame but also implying the metaphor of spiritual sublimation.
The back of the coin has the words “Good luck coming”, which can be understood as: Good luck always accompanies me. Although there is no clear documentary source, the word “good luck” is commonly seen in auspicious coin inscriptions in the Ming and Qing dynasties (such as “Good luck always comes” and “Good fortune follows”), reflecting the folk’s resistance to random fate and the active invocation of luck. “Coming to oneself” emphasizes the direct binding of good fortune to the individual, reflecting the Taoist thought of “Interaction between Heaven and Man”, believing that auspicious qi can be introduced into the body through a specific medium.
This amulet coin can be hung in the workplace or worn with the body, continuously strengthening the belief in progress through visual symbols; As a focal point for meditation, it can clear mental barriers by borrowing the energy field of ancient bronze and balance the utilitarian mentality and moral sense.
The auspicious amulet coin with the meanings of promotion in official position and good luck coming, using ancient bronze as a medium, fuses historical willpower, group beliefs, and natural energy into one.Its value lies not only in the craftsmanship and aesthetics but also in providing a spiritual channel for contemporary people to connect traditional wisdom with present challenges – Not forgetting to cultivate one’s inner nature while pursuing fame and fortune is the true meaning of “good luck”.
Our amulet coins are cast and remade from ancient copper coins that were in circulation in ancient times, and their special material endows them with four symbolic effects:
Superposition of historical energy. After hundreds of years of circulation, ancient copper coins absorb the wishes and usage marks of their holders in different dynasties on their surfaces. Taoism believes that its “field of power of wishes” can be transferred to new vessels during the smelting process. For example, the “Stories by the Autumn Lantern” in the Qing Dynasty records that Zhouyuan Tongbao was regarded as a “carrier of Buddhist power” because it was made by smelting Buddha statues into coins, and the folk firmly believed in its effect of dispelling diseases and evil spirits.
Resonance of group beliefs. The collective memory carried by the ancient bronze material forms a “symbolic potential energy”. According to the theory of “collective unconsciousness” in psychology, items that are given specific meanings for a long time (such as copper coins symbolizing promotion) can trigger deep psychological resonance and enhance the self-suggestion and action ability of the wearer.
Empowerment of physical properties. Due to oxidation, ancient bronze forms a unique microscopic structure, and its electrical conductivity and electromagnetic field fluctuations (about 7-8Hz) are close to the bioelectrical frequency of the human body. Mysticism regards this as the material basis for the “resonance between the person and the item”. Compared with new copper, the magnetic field strength of coins remade from ancient bronze is higher, and it is considered to be more likely to interact with the energy of heaven and earth.
Enhancement of self-suggestion. The long history and culture, the common beliefs of hundreds of millions of people, and the ancient copper coins that carry the wishes of countless people, when combined, can serve as an important magic tool for meditation, self-suggestion, and self-improvement. Wearing it with the body, playing with it frequently, or placing it in the workplace can greatly enhance one’s own beliefs.
