Interesting fact
The 5 Cash coin from Szechuan Province (Chinese provinces) made of Brass in 1912 was part of a series of coins issued during the Republican period in China, which lasted from 1912 to 1949. These coins were designed to replace the old imperial system of currency and were minted in various provinces across China. The 5 Cash coin was a widely used denomination during this period and was equivalent to about 1/4 of a Chinese yuan. It's worth noting that the coin is a rare and valuable collector's item today, and its value can vary depending on its condition, rarity, and demand. If you're interested in learning more about Chinese coins or collecting them, there are many resources available online and in numismatic communities that can provide valuable information and insights.
