Comment
For Y#B38c.3, the obverse is said to be the same as Y#B38b.1; however, that obverse is the same as Y#B38c.1. With that being said, Y#B38c.1 and Y#B38c.3 appear to be the same coin listed twice.Interesting fact
The 10 Cash coin from Sinkiang Province, made of copper, features a unique design element - a stylized dragon on the obverse (front side), which is not commonly found on other coins of the same denomination and era. This dragon design was specifically added to symbolize good luck and prosperity, reflecting the cultural significance of the dragon in Chinese folklore.
