Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 100 Cash (Brass) 2 (1913) from Szechuan Province (Chinese provinces) made of Brass weighing 20.80 g is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in China. The coin was produced in 1913, just a few years after the fall of the Qing dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. This period saw significant political, social, and economic changes in the country, and the coin reflects some of these changes in its design and production. For example, the coin features a new design that was meant to symbolize the new republic and its values, and it was minted using a modern process that was intended to increase efficiency and production. Despite these changes, the coin still maintains a sense of continuity with the past, as it was made of brass, a material that had been used for centuries in Chinese coinage. Overall, the coin is a fascinating piece of history that provides a glimpse into a time of great transformation in China.
