aiglet7 Pillar of the Community Canada 695 Posts	Posted 07/17/2013 1:36 pm They both appear to be from the Ching Dynasty (1644-1911). The first coin would have been issued by Emperor Kao Tsung (1736-1795). Reign title Chien Lung (1736-1795). The second coin - which is upside down - would have been issued by Emperor Jen Tsung (1796-1820). Reign title Chia Ching (1796-1820). Board of Public Works Mint, Peking. Unsure of the mint for the first coin. Perhaps someone else will help you there. Report this Post to the Staff

So, Board of Works for both, I think! Chien Lung coins were minted in some of the succeeding reigns, weren't they? Report this Post to the Staff
