Hey everyone! While at the store today I walked next to a coin star machine after someone used it and they left lots of foreign coins lined up perfectly on the shelf for some reason. I was able to identify many of the coins that where written in English of characters I can understand and type out, But there are some which are written purely in characters that appear Asian and I have no way of knowing what they are. So I need help if anyone can that is, which will be greatly appreciated by the way. The first coin is a bit worn so it will be very hard to make out details.. sorry.

Wow I'm sorry again I got the urge to do my own research and found out that all my 'unknown coins' are 2 types of yens and one Korean 10 Won.

Thanks anyways. But man because I got the feeling to check that Coinstar I got an extra 22 foreign coins to add to my collection some of them are really nice too. I'll post the entire lot tomorrow.

Yes your bottom coin is a 1987 10 won Korean coin. It has a value of about one cent, unless it is a rotated die error. Very rare 1987 10 won coins have a 180 degree rotated die, so the coin flips on a medallic alignment. If you grab it from the bottom and flip it on the Y axis (flip it from left to right/right to left) and the reverse is straight up and down, you have an error. Otherwise it is worthless. They normally have a coin alignment, not medallic.
