Alternative interpretation of the reverse legend exists, where "Wanwan" is interpreted not as a name but as a title "Victorious". Rare very small late issue. This is a very rare variety with the bust right most of the coins of Wanwan have a bust facing left. The only coin of this type with the bust right we have ever handled.
