windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 07:32 am 2.72 grams is probably more accurate. 2sUxek05kZw Report this Post to the Staff
windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 07:33 am @keith12... it would be except the obverse is different and the year is 1921. It shouldn't exist. Edited by windweaver77 03/19/2022 07:35 am Report this Post to the Staff
Keith67 Pillar of the Community United States 6612 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 08:31 am We cant see the date on the coin in your videos. Photos would be much better Report this Post to the Staff
triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9450 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 09:55 am Probably a fake where someone has used the reverse design of the 1 jiao, but the obverse design from the 1921 Fat Man 1 yuan. Report this Post to the Staff
windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 10:01 am @Keith12 What is it that you want to see? The scale? I can read a scale. The scale says 2.72 grams. The date is 1921 go back to the original post. It's there. I didn't use a different coin. I don't own an fat man coins other than this one.

windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 10:03 am @Triggersmob Do you have a link with something like this? I'd love to see it. I haven't found a single coin on earth with this obverse, in any denomination. Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5786 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 10:04 am I'm with those suggesting it is counterfeit. (Triggersmob probably has it right since you can't seem to find a coin with matching devices.) Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 10:08 am @petespockets55 I would love to see a scan of this Yuan coin with that obverse. That's all I am saying. I have contacted the seller and asked her where she gor this from. Hopefully she'll have some answers. Report this Post to the Staff
windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 10:21 am I found another one but with a different date in the image section when I searched " fat man coin." However this example has a different reverse. It is from an auction website, but the auction is over. No details on the auction other than " fat man small coin" Edited by windweaver77 03/19/2022 10:28 am Report this Post to the Staff
windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 10:33 am @keith12 Photos of the coin on the scale What other tests you guys want to see? Report this Post to the Staff
windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 10:36 am I am ringing this thing ... and I compared it to some other stuff. Yeah. I agree, it's probably fake( or at least not silver, more likely nickel by the sound of it). Or at the very least made of something other than silver. It's hard to ring such a tiny coin with such big fingers, though. Edited by windweaver77 03/19/2022 11:02 am Report this Post to the Staff
