CHINA, ancient round coins
    Some theories that the early round coins developed from the handles of the knife coins, and there is evidence to support this (character Hua - used to be read as Ming), but ring handles on vessels just as possible.  China is a big country, maybe both were ancestors.  Or maybe something else entirely.
