Interesting fact

The 10 Cash (Urumchi) 58 (1921) 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 1921, 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, serving as a reminder of China's rich cultural heritage and economic development.
