| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a prominent imperial five-clawed dragon depicted in high relief at centre, shown in three-quarter frontal view with its body coiled, claws outstretched, and a flaming pearl beneath its chest, surrounded by stylised clouds and flames. The circumferential Latin legend reads KIANG-SI across the upper arc and 10 CASH across the lower arc, separated by small ornamental stops. A continuous beaded border ring frames the central dragon motif, and the milled rim border defines the outer edge of the coin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Kiangsi Provincial Mint was among the later entrants in China's decentralized machine-struck cash coinage program, which the Qing court had authorized province by province beginning in the 1890s as a response to chronic shortages of small-denomination currency. By 1902, over a dozen provincial mints were producing 10-cash copper pieces to broadly similar specifications, creating a fragmented monetary system that the central government never fully controlled. Counterfeiting and unauthorized overstrikes were endemic almost immediately.
The Boo-yuan mint mark in Manchu script identifies the Yuan Bureau in Kiangsi — a detail that distinguishes this issue from later Kiangsi pieces that dropped the Manchu notation entirely.
