joeysanders627 Valued Member United States 408 Posts	Posted 10/05/2016 04:38 am That's the problem with Chinese coins. It's difficult to gage value on them and, on top of that, one has to be careful that they are not buying or have bought fakes. Report this Post to the Staff

Myself, I wouldn't attempt to buy any but some people here have enough experience to single out the fakes. Perhaps in the meantime you could provide a photo of the other sides which may be necessary for full attribution? Report this Post to the Staff

Top to bottom, left to right: Far left: 1. Replica 2. Japan, Kanei Tsuho, 1700s or 1800s. Worth about 50 cents with that casting error. Left middle: 3. Replica 4. Replica? 5. China, Qianlong 1736-96. Probably genuine and worth about 10 cents Right middle: 6. Qianlong again. Better shape so maybe 25 cents? 7. China, Wen Tsung 1851-61. Worth a couple dollars. 8. Song dynasty? Far right: 9. Another Qianlong 10. China, Shih Tsu 1644-61. Looks OK, maybe polished? 11. I think Song dynasty? Report this Post to the Staff
