Comment
These coins were struck in 1898 and from 1901 to 1908; there appears to be no minting recorded from 1899 to 1900.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Fen coin from Szechuan Province is that it features a unique blend of Chinese and Western design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of the Guangxu Emperor, while the reverse side features a traditional Chinese dragon surrounded by intricate floral patterns. This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and fusion that occurred during the late Qing dynasty, and makes the coin a fascinating piece of numismatic history.
