| Opmerkingen |
The Ta-Ching Government Bank was established by imperial edict in 1905 as the Qing dynasty's attempt to consolidate state banking functions and bring provincial note issue under central control. It largely failed at that second goal. Branch offices — including Shansi — continued issuing notes with significant local variation in typography, chop marks, and overprints, reflecting the reality that Beijing's authority over provincial financial practice was more nominal than actual by 1911.
That year is the crux of everything here. The Xinhai Revolution broke out in October 1911, the dynasty collapsed, and the Ta-Ching Government Bank ceased to exist as an imperial institution. Notes issued in the final months of 1911 were among the last the bank produced anywhere.
