The Tuoyang Coin Hoard Site is a cultural tourism attraction.

The Tuoyang Coin Hoard Site is located approximately 200 meters northeast of Tuoyang Village, Zaolin Town, Dai County. It was unearthed in 1980 and covers an area of 120 square meters. The pit measures 15 meters from east to west, 8 meters from north to south, and 1.2 meters deep. A total of 62 Warring States period spade coins were excavated, divided into two types: one type features a flat top, square shoulder, and flat crotch, known as the Jinyang coin; the other type features a flat top, round shoulder, and curved crotch, known as the Anyang coin. These are housed in the county museum. In 1984, the Dai County People’s Government designated it as a county-level cultural relics protection unit.
