Good round MMM. If this is the coin you are refering to, then I'm not sure if you can see enough detail. What do you think...  |

Nice fake MMM. Not a fake, those things circulated in Nagasaki. They imitated the design of a Chinese coin from 600 years earlier. |

My coin weighs 2.98g. Given the wear, I think that is within tolerance to be the Chinese coin. Looks like the Japanese imitation is only 2.12g.

My coin weighs 2.98g. The weights of those old cash coins are pretty variable and listed weights can't be trusted, but probably is Yuanfeng Tongbao. Your coin has slightly different look about it. |
