Comment
While the non-Kansu pieces were made of .890 silver, these Kansu pieces were made of debased silver, and were therefore stamped with the province's name to differenciate them from the up-to-standard coins.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1914 Kansu Province 1 Yuan coin is that it features a unique design of a "Fat Man dollar" or "Kan Su" on one side, which is a rare and distinctive feature compared to other coins of its time.
