Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Fen (Chi Tung Bank) 26 (1937) coin from East Hebei (Japanese puppet states in China) is that it was minted during a time of great political and social upheaval in China. The coin was issued in 1937, which was the same year that the Japanese invaded and occupied China, leading to the formation of puppet states like East Hebei. Despite the turmoil, the coin still bears the standard design of the Nationalist government, which was the official government of China at the time. This coin is a tangible reminder of the complex history of China during World War II and the impact that foreign occupation had on the country's currency and economy.
