One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Mithqual - Guangxu (Aksu) 1310 (1893) from Sinkiang Province made of Silver weighing 3.50 g is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in China. The Guangxu Emperor ruled from 1875 to 1908, a period marked by the fall of the Qing dynasty and the rise of the Republic of China.
