A decent grade I thought and whilst not cheap, these are hard to find in this quality without chop marks. Any minutie from the keen eyed Chinese Numismatic experts welcome.

Chinese dollars of the Provinces usually attract decent prices in uncirculated condition.

Extremely good fakes of these exist. From the pictures here, this one looks OK. I think it is prudent to always check for weight and do a comparison ring tone test against a genuine known example.

I have a few fake and genuine Chinese Provincial dollars, but none of them quite as nice as this one.

This was purchased from the Numismatic Society Asia in Singapore and one can never do the things suggested until after one pays and the coins arrives in the country. The Kiangnan dollars command a very high premium, though I paid about £180GBP hammer. The proof of the pudding is how it does at NGC.
