Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 10 Cash - Guangxu (Brass) ND (1903-1905) from Szechuan Province (Chinese provinces) made of Brass weighing 7.10 g is that it was minted during a time of great change and modernization in China. The Guangxu period, which spanned from 1875 to 1908, saw the introduction of new technologies, institutions, and ideas from the West, and the coinage of the time reflects this shift. The use of brass, a metal that was previously unknown in China, was one of the many innovations introduced during this period.
