Interesting fact

The 10 Cash coin from Szechuan Province (Chinese provinces) made of Copper is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change in China, as the country was transitioning from a imperial dynasty to a republic. This coin was minted in 1912-1913, which was a period of political upheaval and the fall of the Qing dynasty. The coin's design reflects this change, as it features a combination of traditional Chinese symbols, such as the dragon, and modern elements, such as the republic's flag. This coin is a unique representation of China's history and a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
