China - 1 Cash Coin

Qing (Ching) Dynasty

Ch'ien-lung / Qianlong Emperor

Boo Ciowan

Coins were not minted with dates, but this form was used between 1736 to 1795

The Qianlong Emperor (Chien-lung Emperor) was the sixth emperor of the Manchu-led Qing Dynasty, and the fourth Qing emperor to rule over China proper. The fourth son of the Yongzheng Emperor, he reigned officially from 11 October 1735 to 8 February 1796. On 8 February, he abdicated in favor of his son, the Jiaqing Emperor – a filial act in order not to reign longer than his grandfather, the illustrious Kangxi Emperor. Despite his retirement, however, he retained ultimate power until his death in 1799. Although his early years saw the continuation of an era of prosperity in China, his final years saw troubles at home and growing foreign encroachment on the Qing Empire.

The insciption of Boo Ciowan indicates that this coin was minted at the Board of Revenue mint in Bejing. The Manchu mint name translates to Pao-Ch'uan, or "The Fountain head of the Currency".
