Sap Moderator Australia 16882 Posts	Posted 09/08/2013 6:34 pm Sorry, robamka, but for all intents and purposes, they are the same. The inscriptions are the same four characters, and the only genuine cash coins with these characters are the super-scarce Xi Xia coins manymore linked to. Yours, with the curious "third leg" attached to the Bao character, is a very close match for this one; I'm pretty sure everything being offered for sale by that "dealer" is fake. 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
robamka New Member Canada 3 Posts	Posted 09/08/2013 7:42 pm Thank You Sap! I see the 3rd leg ...I appreciate the clear explanation. I've never bought a coin before and this one cost me 2 $ so all is well. I have a penchant for vases and when a vase is fake there is a clear reason as to why...the rim, the base and most of the time the shade of the colours ! I just couldn't see it with this coin. Thanks again ! Report this Post to the Staff
