Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50 Fen coin from Szechuan Province is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in China. The Xuantong Emperor, who ruled from 1909 to 1911, was the last emperor of the Qing dynasty, and his reign marked the end of over two thousand years of imperial rule in China. The coin's mintage was a part of a larger effort to modernize China's currency and economy, which was influenced by Western ideas and technologies. Despite the tumultuous period in which it was minted, the 50 Fen coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item today.
