Hi, I recently received a large quantity of old foreign coins, I managed to identify the majority of them online apart from these remaining coins. Any help/information/value would be greatly appreciated. I can provide more detailed images if required. Thanks heaps.
1 Germany 2-3 China ? 4 France 5-6 Japan 7 Great Britain ? 8 Japan 9-14 17 Netherland East Indies 15-16 Japan ? 18-19 Thailand The NGC world coin guide is a great online resource.
Better pictures, and please one or a two at time, might have some great Japanese I cant see the dates..
Thanks for the responses. I've taken some more photos of the Japanese coins. The new numbers don't relate to the original pair of images.
sweet. I am house sitting for my parents and do not have access to my coin catalogs. I will give you more info on some of these coins on my day off thursday.
Number 5 is a 1 sen from the Showa era Try this link. http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces8949.mobile.html
1and 2 are 10 sen. All of your coins are from the 1940's. Not much value but they all are under the same Emperor, sorry can't spell his name. He's the same one that attacked us on Dec. 7,1941. Slap a Jap Day we called it in Yokosuka when I was stationed there. By the way I like Japanese people as a whole.
2 and 3 are Chinese. Hard to make out the symbols on it. If you can send a closeup of those also. No not Chinese. Vietnamese. Gotta read the symbols on it. Oh, thanks for all the research.
Cool. Saved some time. 2 and 3 I know are Vietnamese. 4 symbols on the front and 2 on the back. I just can't match them up.
