Interesting fact

The 10 Cash 49 coin from Kiangsi Province (Chinese provinces) made of Copper weighing 5.95 g is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change and turmoil in China, as the country was transitioning from a imperial dynasty to a republic. This coin was minted in 1912, just a few years before the fall of the Qing dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. It's a piece of history that reflects the complex and dynamic nature of China's past.
