Interesting fact
The First East Turkestan Republic (Sinkiang Province) 20 Cash coin from 1934 is interesting because it was issued during a brief period of independence for the region, which was soon occupied by the Chinese Nationalist Government. The coin's design features a stylized mosque and the Arabic inscription "المسلمية دولة شرق تركستان" (Islamic State of East Turkestan) reflecting the region's Islamic heritage.
