Gil-galad Pillar of the Community United States 2044 Posts	Posted 01/14/2013 3:04 pm I just ordered this coin from the same dealer. Let's see if he has it this time. Unfortunately, I won't be getting the coin till sometime late in the month because he is on vacation. I like this coin better than the other current coins of the same type, but not as good as the one I picked before. Report this Post to the Staff

Gil-galad Pillar of the Community United States 2044 Posts	Posted 01/28/2013 1:32 pm I have that coin now. That's the scan I made for it. Those are old Chinese characters that have evolved as the language has for around 2000 years. It says Huo Quan which means wealth or money coin. It's the base 1 Wu Zhu cash value.
