Dfab86 New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 04/25/2017 10:16 pm I googled some coins and found similar coins to what I have but the characters are different. I can't seem to find the exact coins I have. I have attached pics of them, both sides. Anyone recognize them? Report this Post to the Staff

The second one looks like an extremely common Qianlong Boo-chiowan one, which would have been made from 1736 to 1795 (see here). The first looks machine-struck, and I believe it is the same type that is found in this thread, which is one from the Kwangtung Province. Report this Post to the Staff
