Comment
The regular flags type has the sun-in-square on the left flag; the reversed flags type has the sun-in-square on the right flag.Interesting fact
The 10 Cash coin from Sinkiang Province made of Copper is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change and political upheaval in China. The coin was minted in 1922, just a few years after the fall of the Qing dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. This period saw a lot of political instability and conflict, including the Chinese Civil War and the rise of communism. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains its value and historical significance, offering a glimpse into China's rich cultural heritage.
