Interesting fact

The 10 Cashes coin from Kirin Province (now known as Jilin Province) is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Emperor Guangxu (Boo-gi) in the late Qing dynasty, but it was never actually circulated. Instead, it was kept in storage for many years before being released to the public, making it a rare and valuable collector's item.
