TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 05/07/2011 10:26 pm I sorted and organized all my world coins. I have a few hundred coins I have alphabetized by country and by date within that but 5 coins have me stumped. First pair Third coin is like the one dated 1939 but much more recent dated 1992. Last two, I am guessing China and Norway? Thanks Edited by TNG 05/07/2011 10:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16837 Posts	Posted 05/08/2011 02:50 am Chinese it is indeed. From the reign of one of the longest-lived emperors, the Qian Long emperor (ruled 1736-1796). It's date cannot be narrowed down any more accurately than that. Despite being from so long ago, these coins are among the most common coins on the planet - they were cast in huge numbers throughout his long and prosperous reign, from numerous mints. This one was cast at the Board of Revenue mint, one of two mints operating in Beijing. 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
