[QUOTE="manymore, post: 775198, member: 17118"]Several different flags were being used at the time the Republic was established. The flag on the left was used during the "Wuhan Uprising" and was adopted by the army. It has 9 dots (stars) at the tips of the rays and another 9 dots (stars) at the base of the rays. These 18 "stars" represented the 18 provinces that existed at the time the Republic of China was founded. The flag on the right was [I]initially[/I] adopted as the national flag (but later changed) and has 5 stripes which represent the 5 major nationalities of China: Han, Manchu, Mongol, Hui and Tibetan. Unfortunately, I do not collect these coins and do not know their present worth. However, I believe they are considered to be fairly common. Gary[/QUOTE]
