pls Rest in Peace United States 1729 Posts	Posted 02/09/2011 6:49 pm Most of the modern European coins are "obsolete" (in favor of the euro) and demonetized. We'd have to see dates on the Austrian and Great Britain coins to be able to determine if they have much value. I have no clue on the Chinese coins - someone should be by here presently to comment on them. The coins in collars might be of interest to someone who collects "lucky" coins. The St. John the Divine medal appears to be cupro-nickel, not silver. Sorry! Report this Post to the Staff
Kingz Pillar of the Community Netherlands 626 Posts	Posted 02/09/2011 8:36 pm The 10 cents from Nederland (The Netherlands) with the head facing left is a small silver coin, not much value though (what's the date?) The other coins from Holland are not particularry anything of value, nice to have but that's it I guess... The German smaller coins 1 & 10 Pfennig is also nothing of value, there are hundreds of millions of them. But nice too see that the 1 pfennig is practically unc. The 1 Mark is maybe a few bucks, like $3/$5 or something The Schillings from Ostereich = Austria, again nothing fancy... All very common coins The chinese look a bit fake to me, but that might be a bit prejeduice, so maybe someone else can confirm this? The rest I'm also not so familiar with... What is the small coin with numer 2 ? Hope it helped...! Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16836 Posts	Posted 02/09/2011 10:04 pm The larger Chinese piece with the round hole is an amulet or charm, not a coin. The medium-sized one, darker colour with the square hole, is an old Japanese cash coin. The small thin one is a machine-struck cash coin from Kwangtung province, China. None of these will be particularly valuable. A closeup of both sides of the two Chinese 10-cash coins (the two copper coins above the Japanese one) will let us identify them; there are some scarcer varieties and mintmarks of those coins. The copper coin with British king George V on it is presumably a Canadian cent; we'd need to know the date to determine value, but it appears to be in excellent condition. For info about the "irradiated dime", see the links in this old thread. 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. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

xphobe New Member United States 35 Posts	Posted 02/12/2011 11:53 am I was interested in the big chinese piece too (btw it is upside down in the pic). I asked my sister-in-law what it says. According to her, it is a fungshui charm, and this is a prayer.
