GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 01/28/2016 8:32 pm It is suppose to be a silver coin from China My first impression is that it is a commonly faked coin. See if it will stick to a magnet. If it does, than it is fake. If it doesn't stick to a magnet .. It still could be fake. Report this Post to the Staff
Bertensgrad Pillar of the Community United States 1192 Posts	Posted 01/28/2016 8:35 pm Those coins are highly faked haha. I have never seen one that was real. Though I'm not a expert on them. We see what the others say. There are a lot of fantasy type Chinesse crown sized dollars in production right now. I was given a chance to buy a fake one at a coin store for $1 in the token area but I ended up passing. Report this Post to the Staff

swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 01/28/2016 10:13 pm I concur a forgery. The split in the wire rim top dead center of the first picture proves that. Check the edge - the reeds will likely be split top and split tailed. Typical Chinese non-silver forgery. Report this Post to the Staff
Bertensgrad Pillar of the Community United States 1192 Posts	Posted 01/28/2016 10:24 pm I always forget to look for weakness in the reeds it was so obvious. I usually just always stick magnets to them. I not interested in Chinesse coinage but I see them at antique malls a lot. Always like seeing if they stick Report this Post to the Staff
