Michael Allen New Member Canada 1 Posts	Posted 10/08/2010 1:54 pm My girlfriend purchased these coins at a garage sale for a 2 dollars each. The lady selling them claimed she paid 50 each (canadian dollar). I'm just looking to see if anyone has any information on these because guests at our house are quite interested by them. Thanks, Mike Identified - moved to Exonumia forum - Sap Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16882 Posts	Posted 10/28/2010 8:25 pm The top one is a charm of some kind. The bottom one is a replica of an extremely rare 10,000 cash "coin" issued by Wang Mang, the usurper emperor who reigned from 9 to 22 AD. The square part is supposed to be at the bottom. There are no genuine examples listed on zeno.ru, but this fake one is. 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
