1 Srang - In the name of Xuantong, 1908-1912

Xuantong was the reign title of Puyi, the last Qing emperor, who ascended the throne in late 1908 at age two. Tibet struck coinage in his name during a period of acute political instability — the Qing had launched a military campaign under Zhao Erfeng to bring Tibet under firmer imperial control, a push that would temporarily expel the 13th Dalai Lama to British India in 1910. That this coinage exists at all reflects the Qing court's insistence on asserting suzerainty through symbolic instruments, including currency, even as their grip on the plateau was actively contested.

The dynasty collapsed in 1912, ending the Xuantong era after just three years.
