bdizzy New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 01/19/2022 11:42 am I have identified this as a southern song dynasty 17.907/908 bronze cast 500 cash coin reduced. I know there were/are a lot of counterfeit coins made. How do I know if this is real or not? I have not found a lot on this coin so any additional information would help. Thanks.

Not sure where it came from, just trying to find out something about it. If is a fake, it is not a big deal, I will just make it into a pendant for my wife as she likes the way it looks. Thanks.

bdizzy New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 01/19/2022 3:45 pm Thank you for the information. I will deface one side so it won't get sold again and make it into a pendant. Report this Post to the Staff
