Interesting fact
The 20 Fen 38 coin from Kweichow Province (now known as Guizhou Province) is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change in China. In 1949, the Communist Party of China (CPC) led by Mao Zedong came to power, and the country began to transition from a Nationalist government to a socialist state. This coin was minted during that transition period, making it a unique piece of history. Additionally, the fact that it's made of silver adds to its value and rarity, making it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
