Interesting fact
The 10 Cashes - Guangxu 38 (1901) coin from Kirin Province is interesting because it features a unique blend of Chinese and Western design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of a dragon, which is a traditional Chinese symbol, while the reverse side features a portrait of the Guangxu Emperor, who ruled China from 1875 to 1908. This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between China and the West during the late Qing period.
