Interesting fact

The Guangxu coin was issued during a time of great change and turmoil in China, as the country was transitioning from a traditional imperial dynasty to a modern republic. The coin's design, which features two Chinese characters without an English denomination, reflects this shift towards modernization and the increasing influence of Western culture in China during the late Qing period.
