Interesting fact
The 1 Fen/1 Cent coin from Kwangsi Province (Chinese provinces) made of Brass, has a unique feature. The coin's reverse side features a stylized Chinese character for "kwang" which means "light" or "brightness." This character is depicted in a bold and artistic style, making it stand out from other coins of the same denomination. This design element not only adds aesthetic value to the coin but also symbolizes the province's name and its cultural significance.
