Out of print, this is a most extensive and important study on this period of the common Ch'ing dynasty cash. It was originally a doctoral dissertation to the University of Munich. He has observed minute variations in the general cash issues and from the original Chinese sources was able to establish a chronology on a yearly basis for all the mints for the Chinese rulers from 1616-1735. The second study completing the issues of cash to 1910 was never published.
