China, Qing Dynasty, [Zhong Qian 85] brass 1 cash, 'Kang Xi Tong Bao', 1736-1911, Manchurian and Chinese characters 'Zhang' on reverse, Zhangzhou (Fukien Province) mint, 26.5x1.4mm, weighs 4.8g, full set type. The full set types came about as coin collectors of mid to late Qing Dynasty tried to collect a full set of the coins from all the mints, hence some mints casted the whole set to meet this demand, and they tend to be better casted with a more uniform dimension.
