| Beschrijving keerzijde | A coiling Imperial dragon is depicted in high relief at centre, its scaled body curving around a flaming pearl, with cloud scrolls filling the surrounding field. The dragon faces left with an open mouth and prominent claws, rendered in the detailed style characteristic of late Qing provincial machine-struck cash coins. A beaded inner circle separates the central dragon motif from the outer legend. The English circular legend 'TSING-KIANG' appears at top and 'TEN CASH' at bottom, with small decorative rosette stops flanking the denomination. The rim is defined by a reeded or plain edge depending on the variety. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Chingkiang (Zhenjiang) sits at the junction of the Yangtze River and the Grand Canal — historically one of the most commercially vital inland ports in China — which made it an unlikely but logical candidate for a provincial copper issue during the chaotic proliferation of local machine-struck cash in the late Qing period. The Guangxu-era copper reform of the early 1900s encouraged provincial and prefectural mints to strike 10-cash pieces to displace older cast cash, and Chingkiang produced its own identifiable variant rather than simply adopting Jiangsu provincial dies.
The flower privy mark distinguishing Y#78.1-3 from the base type is the detail that separates a common example from a collectible one. Die varieties within this small series remain incompletely catalogued.
