Las coins of the Tibet were minted in this region of Asia Central since the second half of the 18th century (1763–1764 and 1785) until the middle of the 20th.
Before the government of the fifth Dalai Lama (Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso, 1617–1682), the existence of a certain set of small gold ingots is known, used as a means of payment to public treasury officials, So far there is no agreement among specialists on whether or not they should be classified as pieces of legal tender..1
Already in 1792, the first mass-produced silver coins are created, with the joint approval of the Chinese and Tibetan authorities and legends in both languages. in 1840, The first purely Tibetan examples begin to be manufactured. They stopped broadcasting in 1954 and its use was gradually reduced until its definitive disappearance in 1959. Nevertheless, is from 1910 when a greater number of copper and silver coins are put into circulation, of different facial values. Just come in 1918 and 1921, some gold is issued. Its coinage in rudimentary steam engines, the numerous cecas spread throughout the area, as well as the use of primitive blanks made almost by hand, make the weight of each piece and its alignment extremely variable.
Its basic unit was the tangka, which was equivalent to between 5,4 and 5,6 grams of alloyed silver, and the srang, corresponding to 37,3 grams of pure silver. Respect to its geographic scope, It should be noted that they circulated throughout the territory now known as «Greater Tibet» o «historical tibet», then formed by the current provinces chinas of Shroud, Kham and Ü-Tsang.
