gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 10/08/2013 1:32 pm It's most likely this coin found here: http://www.calgarycoin.com/referenc...a/china5.htm Issed around this era: YUAN-FENG, AD 1078-1085. As for value, probably a few dollars. I know - sounds mad even though it's thousand year old but these were cast in terms of millions. No idea what their mintage is like but it's not rare.

A similar coin may be seen here. Gary Report this Post to the Staff
