Additional information

Sinkiang's provincial mint at Urumqi operated under chronic instability throughout the early Republic period, and the 1931 issues reflect the administrative turbulence of Jin Shuren's governorship — a tenure marked by heavy taxation, ethnic Uyghur and Kazakh uprisings, and near-total fiscal isolation from Nanjing. The province ran its own monetary system out of practical necessity, with little coordination with the central government.

Y#B39 is one of several overlapping cash issues from this period where attribution remains contested among specialists due to inconsistent die workmanship across production runs.
