Personally my interpretation was they are protecting themselves against people buying bullion and then trying to return it because the price went...
I wanted to get one of the owl coins but I was very surprised how much they cost. The single coin is selling for $36 on eBay, plus it will include...

It's a scan and my scans are usually pretty good. That's just how it looks.
I picked up this coin recently along with a lot of others, mostly tokens. I didn't have much light and didn't look too closely and when I bought...

Here's some fierce creatures. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
The sneaky good coins there are the British Honduras, of which I see five or six maybe. Most people look right past them but everything from there...
Here's mine. As you say, it's not as well made as yours. [ATTACH]
Looks like you're right. So since it's the Japanese one, what do you call it as far as denomination? Is it still tong bao?
