Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Guangxu period (1875-1908) of the Qing dynasty, which was a time of significant social and political change in China. The coin's mintage location in Tai Province (now known as Taiwan) also adds to its historical interest, as Taiwan was still a part of China at that time. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's composition and its relatively low weight of 5.40 grams make it a unique and interesting collector's item for numismatists.
