A good number of people here seem to be interested in numismatic history, and history in general, so... I've finished writing and preparing this new web-article on the South Korean "Hwan" coins, if you're interested: http://www.dokdo-research.com/hwancoins.html These coins were South Korea's very first circulation coins, and played a role in a currency reform. If you find your eyes glazing-over from the long-winded narrative, just skip around and read the captions under the images. That may be more fun. I Hope it's entertaining on some level...
Thanks for the reply. I always wonder what the reader gets out of these articles I write... The website stats have shown increasing numbers of people are looking at them. Anyway, it keep me busy... as if I have nothing to do(!)
There's obviously a lot there to digest. I don't have the time to read it until tomorrow, but I will read it and report back.
