The Ten Cash Commentary

The definitive English-language guide to the general issue ten cash and one fen coins of the Republic of China issued prior to 1949. Covers 162 varieties, as compared to the 49 varieties in the Standard Catalog of World Coins and the 125 varieties in Woodward’s guide. For example, it covers the five varieties of Y-301; the eight varieties of Y-302; the five varieties of Y-303; and the sixteen varieties of Y-306.2. Observant collectors have seen that most of the Standard Catalog ten cash entries cover more than a single variety, several varieties were not covered at all, and many coin descriptions were confusing or incomplete. The detailed text and photographs in this guide, which meticulously describes all of the general issue ten cash and one fen varieties, should end any identification uncertainty.
