| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse features a coiled imperial dragon rendered in high relief at center, depicted in the classic Qing dynasty style with scales, clawed feet, and a flame-crested head facing forward. The dragon clutches a flaming pearl beneath its body, surrounded by five-pointed stars or flame motifs in the field. The Latin legend 'HU POO' arcs across the upper periphery, and 'TEN CASH' arcs along the lower periphery, both separated from the central dragon motif by the toothed border rim. A small asterisk or rosette ornament appears to the right of the legend, and the entire design is contained within a plain toothed milled border. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Hu Poo (Board of Revenue) mint in Beijing was established in 1903 specifically to give the central Qing government a foothold in copper cash production — a market that provincial mints had dominated almost entirely since the machine-struck copper cash program began in the late 1890s. The experiment was short-lived. Political friction between central and provincial authorities over revenue from copper coinage, combined with the mint's inability to compete with the output volumes of Guangdong and Hubei, led to its closure by 1905.
The brevity of that two-year window accounts for the relative scarcity of this type against the flood of provincial 10-cash pieces from the same period.
