Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of the Guangxu Emperor, who was the only emperor of the Qing dynasty to issue coins with his own name and era title, "Guangxu", which means "glorious succession". This coin, with its unique design and silver content, is a rare and valuable piece of Chinese numismatic history.
