I. Mark of an Era: Historical Background of the Sichuan Dahankou Silver Coin Minted by the Military Government

The Xinhai Revolution broke out in 1911, and the Qing Dynasty's rule collapsed. The Dahankou Sichuan Military Government was subsequently established in the Sichuan region. To stabilize the local economy and military supplies, the military government took over the former Sichuan Mint of the Qing Dynasty, abolished the dragon dollars with Qing characteristics, and began to design and mint"Sichuan Silver Coins"with strong revolutionary characteristics in the **First Year of the Republic of China (1912)**.

The reverse side of these silver coins is engraved with a large"Han"(Han) character in the center, surrounded by eighteen small circles, symbolizing the eighteen provinces that responded to the Wuchang Uprising at that time, signifying"expelling the Da Lu and restoring China."This unique design stands out among many Republic of China silver dollars and has great historical commemorative value.

Sichuan silver coins come in four denominations: one yuan, five jiao, two jiao, and one jiao. Among them, thefive jiao (half yuan) with Chinese charactersis rarer than the one yuan.

III. A Must-Read for Collectors: Key Points for Authenticating Sichuan Silver Coins with Chinese Characters (Five Jiao)

As the market for old silver coins continues to heat up, imitations are also emerging endlessly. As a professional antique appraisal institution, we have summarized the following coreauthentication techniques for Sichuan silver coins with Chinese characters (Five Jiao):

Sound Test:When genuine old silver coins are tapped or lightly struck against each other, they produce a crisp, pleasant, and lingering sound; modern alloy fakes often produce a dull, harsh, or short sound.
Observe the Patina:Genuine coins that have endured a hundred years will develop a natural, rich, and layered oxidation layer (patina). Counterfeit patinas usually appear dull in color, superficial, and may have a pungent chemical smell. This is why we strongly recommend, in ourold silver dollar maintenance and collection advice, never to carelessly clean them – washing away the patina is equivalent to destroying the soul and value of the silver coin.
Examine the Edges and Inscriptions:Although the minting technology during the military government period was limited by wartime conditions, the steel dies were still carved with powerful precision. The inscriptions on genuine coins appear natural, and the edge reeding is consistent in depth and smoothly transitioned; fake coins often have stiff inscriptions and sharp, cutting or blurry edge reeding.
Precise Weighing:Use a precision electronic scale. If the weight deviation is too large (e.g., below 13 grams or above 14 grams), its authenticity should be highly scrutinized.
