Brianm888 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 02/23/2014 7:25 pm I have a couple of coins that I cannot identify. I think it's form Korea. Has a hole in the middle, silver in color(nickel?)and markings of the letter "HY" and what looks like a bus or a tram. Also has a open book with a key and what appears to be a twig. I searched the internet and nothing shows up so thought I'd post it here to see if anyone can help. I'm no expert nor a collector so thought someone on this forum could help. Just trying to get rid of a bunch of coins that I inherited over the years and this one's got me stumped. Report this Post to the Staff

manymore Valued Member United States 347 Posts	Posted 02/23/2014 9:48 pm The inscriptions are written in Hangul (Korean). The image on the left has the inscription í•™ìƒ which means "student". The image on the right has the inscription ì‹œë‚´ë²„ìŠ¤ which means "city bus". It's a student bus token but the city is not identified. Gary Report this Post to the Staff
