Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mithqual - Guangxu (Ration coinage; with Arabic on obverse; silver) ND (1905) from Sinkiang Province 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 establishment of the Republic of China. This coin, with its unique blend of traditional Chinese and Arabic design elements, reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the region during that time.
