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 used for coins minted in Sinkiang Province during the Republican period (1912-1949) and symbolizes the region's cultural and historical significance.
