Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 10/02/2014 9:39 pm Undated late imperial period 20 Cash from Kirin Province I would say. Always good to show pictures of both sides, so one can be sure. Edited by Medieval 10/02/2014 9:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff

wonghinghi Pillar of the Community Hong Kong 1270 Posts	Posted 10/04/2014 09:15 am The coin itself does not show the year. Presence of a dragon on the coin means it was struck during Empire of Ching Dynasty, that is, before 1911. That is the limited knowledge about the coin. Henry Report this Post to the Staff
0xDA71D Pillar of the Community United States 1215 Posts	Posted 10/04/2014 4:36 pm First such coins were struck in 1890 and mostly in 1900 onwards. Like wonghinghi said, dragons were last struck in 1911. Thus, this puts your coin between 1900-1911. Although note that the presence of English on the coin may mean a later date, as only in the late Qing dynasty did China slightly open up to other cultures. Report this Post to the Staff
