So, will this thread have a 1496 before the Second Edition thread reaches 1497?

update on the coin I was looking at:

That site never got back to me with a picture of the "weak date", or even a "get lost" message.

I'm working on getting a coin dated 841 AD. It is a Chinese Kai Yuan Tong Bao with the character Chang on the reverse signifying the first year of Emperor Hui-Chang of the Tang dynasty, 841. Since it was intentionally put there to mark that date, does that count as a dated coin? Sorry, can't help with the 1496... Hefully soon....

Interesting fact, the coins marked Chang were cast with bronze bells and religious artifacts raided from Buddhist monasteries.

Yes. The mark allows you to "date" the coin.

A different coin arrived today, and here is the dealer picture and their attribution. Below is a picture I took with the date traced.

Attribution:
Obverse - Arabic inscription: khan Mengli Giray bin Haci Giray khan (or similar, blundered), star left, three pellets within script on right

Reverse - Giray tamga, line of dots dividing field above, Arabic inscription: mint name around and date (AH 901) on right

(I think that is where they are talking about for the date)
