"tūč" meaning in Proto-Turkic

See tūč in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: The general consensus is that it is a native term. On the other hand, Doerfer considers it a borrowing from Middle Chinese 銅子 (MC duwng tsiX, “copper coin”), however note that the form tunč is a recent innovation prompted by vowel length.
