    This coin is listed as Chinese Soviet Republic, Hupeh-Honan-Anwhei Soviet, Soviet Controlled Province, Dollar, 1932, Y#504. I have not been able to find a good picture of this coin for comparison, so I need a China Coin expert to tell me if it is genuine, Please. Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I was able to get images. It does not appear to match the image you referenced. Any help in identifying this coin is appreciated!

    Problem with Chinese silver is that 99% of them are fake, unfortunately. When in doubt, it's probably a fake.

    I dug out my Standard Catalogue of World coins. There is only an image of 503, the description for 504 states: Hammer and sickle at centre. Sorry can't be of any more help

    Only similar looking one that I can find an image of is from an Albanian seller. Counterfeit Chinese issues abound from Albanian sellers.

    I see some pre-1860 Italian States silver coins being sold by Albanian eBay sellers and I wonder if they are faking those too.
