bobbyhelmet Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2838 Posts	Posted 09/19/2011 1:13 pm Was wondering if anyone knows where these Asian coins come from? - I'm guessing they came from the same place but not sure. The two tokens I have just found in the bottom of a drawer, one is pretty obvious but no idea what the other one is. Thanks for looking. Report this Post to the Staff

Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2897 Posts	Posted 09/19/2011 1:43 pm The top three are 10, 50 and 1 yen from Japan - quite recent - I think these are still legal tender. The tokens look European - The one point probably British - I see them in junk boxes all the time My Papal States coin collection: https://diadumenian.com/Papal%20Sta...0States.html Medieval coins collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Europe.html Indian Rupee Collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Rupees.html Minor world Silver: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...20coins.html Report this Post to the Staff

bobbyhelmet Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2838 Posts	Posted 09/22/2011 09:38 am Thanks for all the info. I've had these and a number of other coins from far flung places since I was a kid. https://goccf.com/t/98428 I had an uncle in the merchant navy between the 50s and early 80s and I'm guessing it was his pocket change that found its way to me.
