Interesting fact

The 1931 Honan Province 20 Cash coin made of copper is interesting because it was produced during a time of great economic and political change in China. The coin was minted in the midst of the Chinese Civil War, which lasted from 1927 to 1950, and was a period of great upheaval and instability in the country. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable piece of Chinese numismatic history and is highly sought after by collectors today.
