MrPink2018 Pillar of the Community United States 2466 Posts	Posted 08/18/2020 7:39 pm thanks, Grape, you got my mind stirred up enough that (i think) I was able to identify it: 1 yuan, Taiwan, though I don't know the date. I found a stock photo, hopefully I've solved the mystery... Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16827 Posts	Posted 08/19/2020 02:49 am The date on the coin is Year 99 of the Republic, which would convert to AD 2010.
