'This page is a collection of images of Manchu Qing Dynasty era cash coins with exclusive Manchu Mintmarks on Wikimedia Commons, I will attempt to complete the list here before adding more images to the English Wikipedia.

Note 📝: The fact that the Manchu characters themselves don't load on Wikimedia Commons is deliberate, as only 86 (eighty-six) people understand the Manchu language as of writing ✍🏻 this the English language place names (as over a milliard people can speak English) are more important than the Manchu ones as the images already illustrate them properly. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 22:37, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Manchu mint marks

[edit]
Template:ManchuSibeUnicode mint mark on a Xuān Tǒng Tōng Bǎo (宣統通寶) coin indicating that it was cast in Kunming, Yunnan.

Another series of bronze cash coins was introduced with Manchu script on the reverse sides of the coin from 1657, many mints contained the Manchu word Template:ManchuSibeUnicode (Boo) on the left, which is Manchu for "Template:Linktext" (indicating "treasure" or "currency") on the obverse side of these coins. To the right of them would often appear a word indicating the issuing agency of the coin. Qing dynasty coinage with exclusive Manchu mint marks are by far the most commonly produced type. Large denomination coins of the Xianfeng Emperor bore Manchu mint marks on the left and right sides of the reverse sides, and the value of the coin on the top and bottom. Coins with exclusive Manchu inscriptions continued to be cast until the end of the Qing dynasty.[1][2][3][4][5]
