QING: Tong Zhi, 1862-1874, AE 10 cash (15.96g), Ili mint, Xinjiang Province, Hua Guangpu p.1774, boo i in Manchu only, VF to EF, R. Although Hua Guangpu states this was cast at the Ili mint, it is unlikely it was produced there. The similarity of this type and others with various mint names cast in the same style would indicate they were cast at one central mint, perhaps somewhat officially, likely during the reign of Guang Xu, 1875-1908.
Estimate: 150-200 USD
