Product Information

The 10 Wen from the Republic of China is round, antique and quite rare. Minted in 1912, the 10 Wen is crafted from copper and has a diameter of 29 millimeters. On the front of the 10 Wen coin, you’ll see two crossed flags with some Chinese lettering, or hanzi, along the top and bottom. Two small flowers separate the writing. The flagstaffs are tied together neatly with a bowed ribbon. The flags themselves represent two common symbols of the new Republic of China: a sunburst and a 5 striped, multicolored banner. On the reverse of the 10 Wen you may be surprised to find English lettering. Along the top, "The Republic of China" is spelled out. Along the bottom are the words "Ten Cash." The same flowers separate the English writing as on the front of the coin. In the center are two large hanzi. The primary reason this particular coin is valuable to collectors is because of the year it was minted. 1912 was the first year of the Republic of China, following the Chinese Civil War and the end of the last imperial dynasty. Lasting from 1912 to 1949, The Republic of China included the modern territories of eastern China, Taiwan, and Mongolia. The Republic marked the end of the Qing dynasty and the present day territories of China, Taiwan, and for some of its history, Mongolia. In modern western China, the People’s Republic of China was established under the rule of the Communist Party. Though common paper money has existed in China since the 9th century, copper coins such as the Ten Cash 10 Wen were used more than anything else. These pariticular coins were introducted to China in the late 19th century. Today, the renminbi is the official currency of the People’s Republic of China which has been reunited with the eastern Republic of China for many decades. Denominations of wen and affiliated currency immediately preceeded the renminbi. The Ten Cash or 10 Wen coin from this time in the Republic of China varies from province to province. When collecting Chinese coins from the early 20th century, keep in mind that the mint and strike marks may make the value vary from coin to coin. Valuation of each Ten Cash coin depends on the grade, market price, and of course on the physical state of the coin. Despite its physical appearance, however, the Chinese 10 Cash can always be popular due to its cultural significance.
