Comment
These were some of the earliest struck coins, and this series was authorized to have a total of 5,000 pieces; however, due to uncertain reasons, the total mintage of this series (with all denominations combined) was 2,000.Interesting fact
The 1 Mace - Guangxu (Bullion coinage) 10 (1884) from Kirin Province (Chinese provinces) made of Silver weighing 3.60 g is an interesting coin because it is a rare example of a coin that was minted during the Guangxu period (1875-1908) of the Qing dynasty, which was a time of great change and upheaval in China. The coin's design features the traditional Chinese dragon, which symbolizes power and good luck, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item. Additionally, the fact that it was minted in Kirin Province, which is now known as Jilin Province, adds to its historical significance as it was an important region in the Qing dynasty.
