Interesting fact

The Guangxu coin was issued during a time of great change and upheaval in China, as the country was transitioning from the Qing dynasty to the Republic. The coin's design, featuring an eight-petaled flower at the center and an uncircled dragon, was a departure from the traditional designs used on Chinese coins and reflected the influence of Western styles and ideas. Despite its relatively short circulation period, the coin remains a popular collector's item today, with some rare variations selling for high prices at auction.
