Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 10 Cash - Guangxu (Circled dragon with mountains; brass) ND (1905) from Honan Province (Chinese provinces) made of Brass is that it features a unique combination of Chinese and Western design elements. The circled dragon with mountains on the obverse (front) side of the coin is a traditional Chinese motif, while the reverse (back) side features a Western-style wreath and the denomination "10 Cash" in Chinese characters. This blending of design styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred during the late Qing dynasty, a time of significant social, political, and economic change in China.
