Comment
Minted to the exact specifications of a Chinese cash coin (or sapèque, 1/1000th of a tael) for use in trade with China; Similar to KM#1 and KM#2 but with a different Chinese character on the leftInteresting fact
The 1 Mil Victoria 1866 coin from Hong Kong (China) made of Bronze weighing 0.98g is interesting because it is one of the smallest coins ever produced, with a diameter of only 13mm. Despite its small size, it was still used as a circulating coin in Hong Kong during the time of Queen Victoria's reign.
