Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 2 Jiao / 20 Cents ND (1923) from Fukien Province (Chinese provinces) made of Silver weighing 5.20 g is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in China. The coin was issued in 1923, 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 power struggles between different warlords and regional factions, which is reflected in the variety of coinage issued during this time. Despite the challenges of this era, the coin remains a valuable piece of Chinese numismatic history.
