摘　　要：古代东西方采用不同的货币体系,但彼此之间互有交流。西域古币龟兹五铢钱正是受中国货币体系的影响而出现的。该钱铸有汉文和婆罗谜文两种铭文,其上的两个婆罗谜文符号中,一个符号为婆罗谜文(mudrā"戳记")一词的缩写mu(=于阗塞语mura"铜钱");另一个符号则为婆罗谜文数字"50"。龟兹五铢钱大约产生于东汉末年,不晚于三国曹魏时期,至7世纪初仍在丝绸之路北道流行。The monetary systems of the ancient east and the west varied,but they had intercourse with each other.The birth of the Five-Baht coin(monetary unit)of ancient Qiuci Kingdom in the western most China was under the influence of Chinese monetary system.The Five-Baht coin bears both Chinese characters and brāhmīalphabets such as‘mu’(the abbreviation for Khotan Saka‘mura’that means‘copper’)and the number‘50’.The Five-Baht coin came out around the end of the Eastern-Han Dynasty,no later than Cao Wei period of the Three Kingdoms,and remained in use along the northern Silk Roads till the early 7;century.
