Interesting fact

The 1 Yuan - Guangxu 33 (1907) coin from the Manchurian Provinces is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil 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. This coin was minted in 1907, just one year before the Guangxu Emperor's death and the end of the Qing dynasty. It is made of silver (.890) and weighs 26.40 grams, making it a valuable and collectible piece of Chinese history.
