Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 200 Cash (Hunan-Hupeh Soviet; countermarked) ND (1931) from Republic of China made of Copper is that it was issued during a time of great political and economic turmoil in China. The coin was minted in 1931, just a few years after the fall of the Qing dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. The country was plagued by warlordism, corruption, and foreign invasion, which led to a period of economic instability and hyperinflation. Despite these challenges, the coin remained in circulation and was used as a medium of exchange for everyday transactions. Today, it is a rare and valuable collector's item, serving as a reminder of China's rich history and the resilience of its people.
