I get irked when Japan gets abbreviated as edited. There is a reason why history lessons exist. The 2019 proof mint set price was jacked up as...
Definitely Japanese, some silver in the lot. Nice lot!
They look very modern. I would not touch it as there may be traces of heavy metal.
The origin of 15 kopek is an odd one. The first pattern of such was attempted during Peter III in 1762. This was never released into circulation....
Actually we should be grateful for the Russians to introduce decimal coinage in the early 1700s. Otherwise we would be stuck with fraction...
Nice! It's definitely from Brussels Mint. Somewhat common but hey, this is one of the very few years when Russian coins were minted overseas,...
Unless it's a key date or it's worth a bit - I personally don't think it's worth spending that much time and effort.
Actually what exactly does the edge show? I believe there are three different varieties from this year. If it has the letters "AG", it's from St....
This is an example of the Sichuan 10 cash coin [img] An example of 20 cash from this era would look like this (from a different area) [img]...
It is from Sichuan province.
This is 10 cash. 20 cash would be worth way more. As of why it was sold that high, I have no idea. There are many different varieties out there.
Why not post better photos instead of insulting people's eyesight? I'm sure a camera that is potentially cheaper than the coin's value takes much...
It has been a while since I've seen a perfect unbroken example. The last time I saw one for offer, the seller was asking closer to the 4 figure...
Cast around 1862–1875 under Tongzhi Emperor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Chinese_cash_coins_by_inscription Pretty neat!
It's the wording that I find it very unpleasant. Read it again and if I word it exactly the same way of why some countries use the lowest...
A bit hard to tell. Would be nice to have better photos. The wear on these coins are often on St George followed by the wings, Queens' hair....
Is this an insult?
I'm impressed - some of the rarer Manchukuo coins are 1933 1 fen, 1939 5 li and 1943 1 jiao (old type). 1935 5 li should be somewhat easy. I am...
The 1943 5 fen is exceedingly rare. Krause and other catalog value do not reflect the true value of it. I have one that is cleaned and it costed...
It is indeed 1943 but the denomination is wrong (assuming the photos are right) It is 1 jiao. 1943 1 fen is actually semi scarce for some reason.
Separate names with a comma.
