In 1906, a pair of silver coins with the character "Zhong" were minted by the Tianjin Mint General Factory of the Ministry of Revenue during the Bingwu reign. However, due to the unresolved controversy over the "two circles", they were only minted and not issued, making them rare in the world. They have always been regarded as key varieties for advanced collection by the older generation of collectors; The sample coin casting process is exquisite, with a mirror like bottom that is delicate and smooth like silk. The graphics and text on it are delicate and exquisite, with sharp edges and teeth; At the same time, the edge of the sample coin undergoes circular oxidation, forming a colorful rainbow that complements the beautiful base and is more artistic and infectious.
