Additional information

The Yún mint designation (雲) indicates production in Yunnan province, a region the Qing court spent considerable military and administrative energy consolidating after the suppression of the Three Feudatories revolt — a war that ended in 1681 and directly stabilized southern mint operations. Kangxi-era provincial cash from Yunnan is notably variable in alloy quality, reflecting the disruption to copper supply routes through Guizhou during the conflict years.
