Interesting fact
The Guangxu ND (1902) 20 Cash coin from Anhwei Province is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change in China. The Guangxu period (1875-1908) saw the fall of the Qing dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China, and this coin was minted during a brief period of reform and modernization under the Guangxu Emperor. Additionally, the fact that it is made of copper, a relatively inexpensive metal, highlights the economic and political challenges faced by China during this time.
