I think you got it. It's a lot older than the ones I usually find. Thanks!
I checked my usual sources for China, Japan and Korea and I don't see this in any of them. Either I overlooked it or it's older than what I...
Probably 90% of the time when I find a good cherry pick in a world coins bin it's a small denomination coin. The big ones catch everyone's...
