Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 20 Cash - Guangxu (Pei Yang; brass) ND (1906) from Chihli Province (Chinese provinces) made of Brass is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in China. The Guangxu Emperor ruled from 1875 to 1908, a period marked by the fall of the Qing dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. This coin was minted in 1906, just two years before the end of the Qing dynasty, and its production was likely affected by the political and economic instability of the time. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of Chinese numismatic history.
