1911 China Yunnan Province L&M-422 Dragon 50 Cash (50 Cents) — PCGS Genuine XF Details (Cleaned)
A scarce high-denomination silver issue from the Yunnan Province Mint during the final years of Qing Dynasty coinage and the transition into the Republic of China era. The L&M-422 50 Cash is a popular provincial silver type featuring the classic Chinese dragon design.
Its value is supported by its large silver denomination, Yunnan provincial origin, historical importance, recognized L&M variety, and strong collector demand for Chinese provincial coinage. Although certified as XF Details due to cleaning, this remains an authentic and desirable example of late Imperial Chinese silver coinage.
