Downer, from what I've seen recently Vcoins is getting a bit sloppy!

I'm hoping to have some stuff to share soonish.

Having trouble understanding everything atm but sure it will sink in, trying to find some good resources on line.

With a major upgrade like that, there are going to be major bugs for awhile. Assuming that the developers are fairly competent, it's going to be awhile to work out the bugs. It's like patching a new site over an old one, more or less. There are going to be problems.

But I am still annoyed about the coin because he never told me which one so I wonder. lol

This is an interesting coin to me because it shows the earlier pictographic origins of Chinese characters.
Personally, I find all ancient cultures interesting because it helps me understand the contrasts and context of my own heritage.
Windchild, you're correct how many Europeans have mixed origins--there were a lot of tribal migrations over the last 2000+ years, and present national boundaries encompass a lot of different tribes and families. Despite nationalistic stereotypes, there is a lot of diversity.

Oh well. This is the coin that did not arrive. I had a feeling it was this one, not sure why. Yes, my coins did arrive after I got home from some tests I had to get done at the hospital.

Later on I'm going to get another one of these. But honestly, I really liked this one so it's kind of a disappointment.

You still have some options if you want a "Wang Coin." I like this one but there are others...

I'm definitely planning on getting one of those for sure, in the future.

Shame, always seems to be the one you want when this happens.

I'm still looking in to these but finding it fun and very confusing

Haha, yes Chinese coins are very confusing. I'm sticking to the more common types to avoid confusion as much as possible.

Oh well, one coin goes, another comes in it's place another day.
