I have one of these Korea 1/4 Yang coins which I found in a 1960's coin dealer's foreign coin box.


Korea 1/4 Yang 1898 (Year 2)
Copper-nickel, 20.7 mm, 4.80 gm

I believe that I have Arirang group E obverse 15 reverse 17.

 

WOW. Thank you for the link!

I have a stash of them hidden away (maybe 30?). I have an error off centre 1898 1/4 yang. Losing omnicoin does hurt...

If I can find them...

 

Couple of the errors

Doubling


Off centre

 

Most of the stuff that I stashed away a while back. Think that would cover a good chunk of the varieties! There's some rotation error too.
