CanadianCollecter New Member Canada 47 Posts	Posted 12/28/2018 4:48 pm Looks like a 1 cash coin of Qianlong (Ch'ien -Lung) made between 1736 and 1800 in the Boo-yuwan mint (Board of Works, Beijing). KM# 390/KM# 391 There are many varieties of this coin because it was minted for so long. You can identify the specific variety and a specific time period by examining the calligraphy. It is almost guaranteed to be real, because these coins are common and counterfeiters would not go to such an extent to make a convincing fake of this coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 12/28/2018 5:45 pm Depending upon your spelling convention, it might also be identified as an issue of the emperor Kao Tsung (1736-1795) I'd concur it's likely genuine, with reproductions generally being rather readily identifiable as such. Originals are certainly not hard to find. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff

Wandering Circle Valued Member Hong Kong 176 Posts	Posted 04/05/2022 07:57 am I think this one can be narrowed down to the "Old Branch" mint of the Board of Works, between 1775-1794 (Hartill 22.259). Report this Post to the Staff
