    My grandfather had these Chinese coins sitting in a drawer and we're trying to figure out what they are. If anyone could help identify these coins, we'd appreciate it! photo.jpg

    The one on the right is Chinese, of the 1736 to 1795 type. The mint would be on the other side.

    Yea I believe so, except I'm not sure if it's a 1 or 4 mon. They are pretty close in size.

    The mint information is on the reverse of these coins. Please post images of both sides.
