Features: The copper coins included in this catalog cover most of the Qing Dynasty and Republican period copper coins, with sizes largely consistent with the originals. Due to photographic limitations, the actual dimensions should be referred to as marked beside the images. The copper coin illustrations in this catalog distinguish different editions of the same denomination for the convenience of readers at various levels. Most coin items are accompanied by brief edition notes beside the illustrations. The catalog prices for copper coins are denominated in Chinese yuan (RMB). Based on current domestic and international market conditions and the intrinsic collection value, the pricing is generally objective and accurate, serving as a reference for coin enthusiasts. The catalog uses a "ten-point scale" for grading copper coins, ranging from Level 1 (rare) to Level 10 (common and very ordinary). Each coin is priced under two categories: common and extremely fine. In recent years, the coin market has placed stricter requirements on condition, making common items easily obtainable while extremely fine items are rare and highly sought after by collectors, as their collection value is significantly higher than that of common items.
