Thread: Chinese puppet states

I created a digital album version of the coins that I got - Manchukuo, East Hopei, Inner Mongolia, Hua Hsing and Federal Reserve Bank. Looks pretty interesting and challenging. I guess I like to start hard type sets...

Nevertheless, here are the links:

Enjoy

I truly enjoyed viewing your virtual album pages. Thanks for posting it.

BTW, I can't seem to find any nice looking puppet state coinage myself. I shop for these items at local shows but never come upon anything nice like your coins. I have been actively trying to upgrade a coin in my collection from Manchukuo with zero success.

Cool album.

What coin are you looking to upgrade, collect89?

Nice set, a couple of them are in excellent condition as well. Cool to see someone in the US serious about collecting these. I was at one point, but with the current strength of the market I am selling just about everything.

I have a Manchukuo 1 Fen that may be VG condition. This is the Brass or Bronze coin that has a flag on the obverse. My VG coin is from an old bargain bin. It's not very attractive & I want a BU example.

You mean like these?





Real UNC coins will be hard but if you are willing to settle for XF or aUNC, they should still be very affordable.

Not if they're slabbed with number grades. =)
