I only have a limited knowledge about Chinese coinage so I will wait to here what some of our experts in that area have to say. I'm sure they will be along to help.

In the future if you could only post one or two coins per thread it makes it easier for them to be identified.

Thanks for link but I have gone through this site and a couple of the coins have similarities to those listed but don't exactly match, and some of the coins are completely different. I'm not sure if all 4 are Chinese or are some from another region in Asia.

I suspect the second is a charm, the other three might be from Korea or Vietnam - I dont think any of them are Chinese, exceptbfor maybe 1. I never could get the hang of reading the coins which is why I never really got into Chinese coins. Our two resident experts, TypeCoin and AnYangMan no longer visit frequently - they would be able to identify in a heartbeat.

I believe somebody called! I had suspected Thomas to already have been here (although he is quite busy nowadays), but we both lurk here now and then.

As for these, I am afraid these are all relatively modern reproductions. None of these imitate coins, but are indeed all Charms. But their lacklustre craftsmanship, clumsy calligraphy and fake patina betray that they are of recent manufacture. There's a fair amount of these on the bay at any given time.
