Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 10 Cash (Brass) 1-2 (1912-1913) from Szechuan Province (Chinese provinces) made of Brass weighing 7.20 g is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in China. The coin was produced during the late Qing dynasty, which was the last imperial dynasty of China, and was minted in the Szechuan Province, which was a strategically important region in southwestern China. The coin's design features the traditional Chinese dragon and phoenix, symbolizing good fortune and prosperity, and its brass composition was a common material used for coins during this time period. Despite its age, this coin remains a valuable collector's item and a piece of Chinese history.
