Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 09/21/2012 7:38 pm The coins with square holes should be Chinese Cash coins. Those with round holes are Japanese. Report this Post to the Staff

Both Chinese and Japanese cash-style coins have square holes. Round-holed ones are either amulets or possibly from Southeast Asia. As for Vermontensium's coin: yes, it's a Qian Long cash, Revenue mint. Extremely common. 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

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 09/22/2012 12:23 am this first Japanese coin does have a square hole, but the others with holes are round. http://(131231) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed /countries/Japan_all.php Edited by Fuzzy317 09/22/2012 12:24 am Report this Post to the Staff
Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2887 Posts	Posted 09/22/2012 02:29 am Yes but the round holed ones are modern machine struck. Japanese cast coins of the "cash" variety have square holes, just like the Chinese ones.
