Interesting fact
The 50 Cash coin from Honan Province, China, made of Copper and weighing 15.23g, is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change and turmoil in China. The coin was minted in 1921, just a few years after the fall of the Qing dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. This period saw a lot of political upheaval and economic instability, which is reflected in the design and production of the coin. Despite these challenges, the 50 Cash coin remains a valuable piece of Chinese numismatic history.
