TheDepreso Valued Member 63 Posts	Posted 05/02/2011 11:32 am Well, I have some old coins to identify that I found in a jar. I know these aren't lavish golden billions, but still, would like to know what these are. I know that some of them are British and French, mostly 19th century? Are these junk or something to hold on to? Report this Post to the Staff

Jeff 11 Valued Member United Kingdom 498 Posts	Posted 05/02/2011 2:18 pm Number 14, Chihli, Chinese province 10 cash ( I think - could be 20 cash depending on diameter). Worth up to about $5 in that condition. www.kingstoncoincompany.co.uk Report this Post to the Staff
Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2899 Posts	Posted 05/02/2011 4:22 pm The Chinese 10 cash and the Russian denga are worth a pound or two - the rest ... well, the Ottoman ones might be worth a pound or two depending on the date but the rest are interesting keepsakes - as they say in the trade.. But an interesting find none the less - enjoy.

Sap Moderator Australia 16883 Posts	Posted 05/03/2011 03:51 am #15 is a 1/2 sol from Peru, 1942-1965 series. But I don't have anything else to add to what the others have seen. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 05/09/2011 1:52 pm Question to Jeff - how do you know that's from the Chihli province without seeing what is on the obverse? And also with the Russian coin, I think it's too big to be a denga - has to be at least one kopek coin. Is there a reverse photos of all the coins?
