Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 05/17/2016 09:21 am This is another from a lot I purchased this past weekend. Easily identified as from the reign of Kao Tsung (1736-1795) and as such pretty ordinary and almost certainly of no great value. However, I'm not recognizing the rather simple mint mark, altough it seems to me that it somewhat resembles that for Fukien Province. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff

Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1913 Posts	Posted 05/17/2016 11:43 am looks like Taiyuan, Shanxi province Report this Post to the Staff
aiglet7 Pillar of the Community Canada 695 Posts	Posted 05/17/2016 1:11 pm As Albert writes it is probably from Taiyuan, Shansi Province. This link may confirm for you:- http://www.sportstune.com/Chinese/c...ntmarks.html Scroll down to "Boo-Jin. Taiyuan, Shansi". Report this Post to the Staff
Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 05/17/2016 1:51 pm Thank you both, that identification would seem to be correct. See: http://www.catawiki.com/catalog/coi...sh-1736-1795 For whatever reason, this mint seems to have been omitted on another website I routinely use to help me sort out the markings on Chinese cash coins.
