Comment
The legend on the reverse is either read from right to left or left to right, indicated where the Zao (造) ends.Interesting fact
The 50 Cash coin from the Northwest Anhwei Soviet in 1932 was made of brass, which is an alloy of copper and zinc. Brass was a common material used for coins during this time period due to its durability and resistance to corrosion. However, the use of brass for coins also had a practical reason, as it was a more affordable option than other metals like silver or gold. Despite being made of a less valuable material, the 50 Cash coin still held significant value in the Republic of China during its time in circulation.
