DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 10:41 pm Here are 6 Chinese cash coins which I'd really appreciate some help to ID. The numbers correspond to the obverse/reverse of each coin, as well as the specs listed below (if that helps) Thanks! Number, weight in grams, diameter in mm 1. 4.38, 24 2. 3.97, 23.5 3. 2.98, 22.5 4. 3.85, 24 5. 4.08, 22.5 6. 4.2, 22 Photos--note, colors are not true; they're adjusted to lend clarity to the inscriptions.

The top pic should be rotated 90 degrees clockwise to show the "right way up". #1: the Jia Qing emperor (1795-1821), Board of Works mint. #2: the Qian Long emperor (1736-1795), Board of Works mint. #3: Jia Qing, Board of Revenue mint. #4: same as #1. #5: same as #2, but the obverse is shown upside-down. #6: Qian Long, Board of Revenue mint. The obverse is upside-down on this one, too. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S.
