Of the six versions of this coin, yours most closely resembles the "tall four" version (Y#45.3), but although the discoloration makes it hard to see, there do seem to be some differences in the calligraphy. Being in China you must be aware of how commonly counterfeited this coin is, so what can you tell us about its weight, diameter, or other information concerning its authenticity?
Why do you post your phone number instead of providing the information gxseries and I have requested?
You see, what is interesting is that it seems to be some kind of overstrike but I can't quite tell what the underlayer is at the bottom.
I am sorry !My English is not good.If you can speak Chinese,Please post Chinese in the note.Thank you very much.
Guys, I'll translate for this guy - language shouldn't be a barrier to numismatic studies. "I'm a person living in Anhwei and it is a currency of my home town. I personally like old coins. If you have the opportunity, you should check our forum. It's a shame that my English levels are too low. I can't understand what everyone's opinions and discussions." I'll translate for this guy and will type my opinion as well.
wangjiang, 我们想要问你，你的硬币是不是真的或者假的。你应该知道中国的假品特别多吧。 我呢，想要知道你的硬币是不是被改铸。 例如，这湖北十文硬币的原来是朝鲜的五分硬币啊 你的硬币好像也是被改铸。只是我不知道原来的硬币是什么。 --- Translation as follows: wangjiang, we want to ask you if the coin that you have is a counterfeit or not. China is known to produce a lot of fake coins. I also want to know if your coin is an overstruck coin - it just seems to be overstruck. I just couldn't tell what the original coin was in the first place.
谢谢gxseries 。您的回复~您的中文很好~~ 这枚安徽省造7.2钱非常开门/我们中文“开门”的意思是：一眼真。没有任何疑问。不是改刻的。 是的。我们这里确实假币特别多。但我的水平还至于能看的懂这些。 我发到论坛。没有出售的意思。我自己也玩钱币。收藏钱币。只不过想大家多了解些中国~~ 另外。您 发的这枚钱是真品。是改铸。不是改刻。改铸和假货完全不一样。您的这枚钱我们国家的人特别喜欢。这改铸是有着特殊的意思。是当时国家的实力水平差。为了节省成本。故意把以前〈老钱币〉利用起来。重新使用。但又不能用旧的名字。只能改铸。我们有刻意收藏此类钱币的朋友。有时间继续和您聊~~ 谢谢！！
The chinese words on the reverse looks suspected to me. The fonts of the english words 'An-Hwei Province' and '7 mace 2 candareens' looks too stiff.
