Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 10 Cash - Guangxu (KIANG-SI; Manchu: Boo-chang; Ku-Ping) ND (1902) from Kiangsi Province (Chinese provinces) made of Copper weighing 7.62 g is that it features a unique combination of Chinese and Manchu languages on its design. The obverse side of the coin features the Manchu characters "Boo-chang" (卜昌), which is the Manchu name for the Kiangsi Province, while the reverse side features the Chinese characters "Kiang-si" (江西), which is the Chinese name for the province.
