Waredu Valued Member United States 397 Posts	Posted 10/17/2010 02:07 am The big one on top is a one-cent coin (commonly called a penny) from the United States of America, made in 1951 in San Francisco, California. The middle one on the bottom is a Chinese cash coin, circa 1851-1861 from the Ch'ing dynasty, Hsien Feng Tung Pao reign. http://www.sportstune.com/chinese/c...ienfeng.html Not sure about the two on the ends - they don't fit what I am used to seeing on cash coins. Edited to add: The ones on the ends appear to be Chinese charms. They're not really coins or patterns. Edited by Waredu 10/17/2010 03:00 am Report this Post to the Staff
