Therefore, later it was also said that the amount of coins minted was actually about 80 million coins, or about 100 million pieces. In addition, after Yuan Shikai's claim that the imperial gate was broken, a large number of silver dollars were recalled, resulting in the rarer and higher value of his coins.
