The reverse (Manchurian script) identifies the mint location. From a quick glance, those coins all appear to have been made between ca. 1700-1850, and are probably worth $1-5 each. I'm not an expert, but there are very few cash coins made after the 1500s that are worth more than about $10. If some of your coins don't match the more modern coins, try searching through some older dynasties: http://www.calgarycoin.com/referenc...na/china.htm Report this Post to the Staff

And though they could be made in the same dynasty, they could be made at different mints... try this... LINK! http://www.sportstune.com/chinese/c.../idpage.html Report this Post to the Staff
