Sap Moderator Australia 16816 Posts	Posted 07/02/2014 07:16 am Hello and welcome. The first coin is definitely not a genuine coin. It is a typical Chinese copy of a late Imperial dollar. The second coin worries me too, though I am less certain about it. The Chinese are not making copies of scarcer low-denomintion Straits coins, but I have seen several locally-produced fakes from your part of the world. Can you find out how much it actually weighs? Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
