Interesting fact
The 2 Fen ND (1928) coin from Shensi Province is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change in China. The coin was minted in 1928, 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 upheaval, and the coin's production was likely affected by these changes. Additionally, the fact that it is made of copper and weighs 13.42 grams makes it a unique and interesting piece of Chinese numismatic history.
