spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 12/07/2019 11:43 pm I received this from a friend and I know nothing about these other than that very old coins can look very similar to more modern coins or it may be fake. 24mm 4.1g Please correct me on orientation if need be. I appreciate any help! In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 12/08/2019 01:06 am Qianlong emperor, ruled most of the 18th century and produced so many coins that these may be the most numerous Chinese coin after the Wu Zhu which were made for 700 years. I used to be able to identify the mints, but forgot. Board of Revenue or Board of Works, both in Beijing. Looks perfectly genuine to me. Report this Post to the Staff

Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 635 Posts	Posted 12/09/2019 5:07 pm I agree with Finn235. This one is from the Board of Works. Please take a look at http://www.calgarycoin.com/referenc...a/china8.htm about halfway down the page. The emperor known as Qianlong was also known as Kao Tsung or Ch'ien Lung, 1736-1795 Edited by Seeker55 12/09/2019 5:08 pm Report this Post to the Staff
