Features: Cost coins and cost coupons are a type of currency. Now, tracing their origins and earliest appearance is extremely difficult. For a long time, cost coins and cost coupons were often issued by industries and units themselves. Their circulation facilitated the needs of industries or enterprises for internal and external services. The classification framework of this book is basically arranged in chronological order of cost coins and cost coupons. Among them, gift coupons, gift coupons, and lottery codes were more typical during the period of cost coins and cost coupons, and the gift coupons, gift coupons, and lottery codes are also included in the chapter titled "Popular." The cost coupons issued during the "Island" period are included in this book as much as possible. Some cost coupons that are only mentioned in literature are also included in the appendix of this book. In the late 1930s of the 20th century, the famous historian Mr. Wei Juxian once compiled "The Recent History of Shanghai's Eight Species." Due to the passage of time, one of the cost coupons in it is now difficult to find. To present the comprehensiveness of this book, we have also included it in the appendix at the back of the book.
