Therefore, the surviving products usually have poor appearance, or the coin surface is worn out, or stamped with a stamp. The bottom of the plate is undamaged, the dragon scales are clear, and the silver luster is as beautiful as a rare gem.

Its state is incomparable to ordinary Jilin series silver coins, and it is extraordinary and captivating at first sight. The seven coins and two fen silver coins minted in this year have three layouts, namely the central flower basket, the central Manchu character "Great Qing Dynasty", and the central number "11". The two rarest layouts are the central flower basket and the central Manchu character.
