Hello! I have some silver coins from various provinces. I bought these from a reputable dealer, and some from local coin auctions and shows. I'll post them down here and see what you guys think! Thank you! Anthony
Nice, maybe you got something special in there. Most dealers and auctions are not very familiar with these types, which leaves a lot of room for cherrypicking and just plain luck

Hello! One of my scarcer 20 cent pieces. This is from Szechuan Province. I believe this is the one with 5 flames at the fireball. Does anyone know the market value for this silver coin? Thanks! Anthony

Very nice coins. All of them aren't just common 'junk' silver. In fact, I think all of them would be easily 50+ dollar mark, if not higher despite the low grade condition. I don't think I own any Szechuan silver coins from this era. Here some of the nicer examples and some unusual examples
Oh! That Fukien "Dumbell" Coin (EDUARD KANN) is a rare coin! I have some Chinese republican silver coins. I have some Old Kiangnan Lao Kiangnan coins too! Love to collect smaller 20 cent and 10 cent pieces. Love the history! More silver coming up! Cool pictures sir! I am an enthusiastic collector of Modern Qing and republican coins! Thanks! Anthony Hui
A scarce 1910 Kirin Province 20 Cents. Minted during the reign of Hsuan Tung. Follows the Tai Ching Ti Kuo format. Quite scarce! Note: Central mintmark!
I recently bought a 1000 Cash coin from Henan Province. Cast in 1851. Does anyone know about this coin? Whether it is genuine and what the market value is? It is 57mm in diameter and is very heavy.
A scarce 20 Cash coin minted in 1910 from Kirin, JILLIN province. Not sure of market value, but I am sure it is genuine. Only Kirin cash coin with a central mintmark. Rest were struck under the reign of Kuang Hsu. Thanks!
I have a lot of these pieces. Here are a few of the better ones. The top left piece is a contemporary circulating counterfeit.
