The Hunan Twenty Cash Commentary: The Twenty Cash Coins of Hunan Province (Including the Hunan Soviet).
Michael Zachary

Hunan Twenty Cash Commentary book cover The definitive English-language guide to the twenty cash coins of Hunan Province, including those issued by the Hunan Soviet government. Covers 97 varieties, as compared to the 16 varieties in the Standard Catalog of World Coins and the 60 varieties in Duan's Chinese-language catalog.

Are you confused by the descriptions in the Standard Catalog? Do you have a coin that is covered by more than one Standard Catalog listing, or several coins covered by a single listing despite having clear design differences? This guidebook untangles these problems and clearly describes all of the different varieties covered by each Standard Catalog listing. For example, do you have the five varieties of Y-400.2? The six varieties of Y-400.7? The seventeen varieties of Y-400.10? Do you know the easy way to distinguish Y-400.9 from Y-400.10? The detailed text and photographs in this book, which meticulously describes all of the Hunan twenty cash varieties, will end your uncertainty (or come pretty close).

Hunan Twenty Cash Commentary sample page Detailed step-by-step identification instructions are included for all coins, with variety-comparison explanations and photographs. It also corrects the mintage dates found in the Standard Catalog, discusses the history behind the major design elements (the flags, the Chio-Ho wreath, and the Hunan Constitution commemoration), explains the different denomination designations, and provides the latest information about the countermarked coins of the Hunan Soviet.

Michael adds:

"My two other books remain available on Amazon: The Ten Cash Commentary: The General Issue Ten Cash Coins of the Republic of China, and The Twenty Cash Commentary: The General Issue Twenty Cash, Two Fen, Two Xian, and Two Cent Coins of the Republic of China. While they remain inexpensive, Amazon has required price increases in the past. "
