Less than 25 dollars. Mine would probably be worth that much unless it's in uncirculated condition.
Pretty sure it's 1898 1/4 yang. Should look something like this [img] Struck in nickel-copper. All the other dates from the Gwangmu era are...
Isn't it the exact same table that I made a while ago???
Got me there Gary. Thanks for picking it up - really appreciate it.
It know it's tough to read foreign characters and here's a table that I made a while ago: [img] If you look at the second character on the...
Don't think you can get them at bullion price unless the seller is desperate. If you find the right buyer, most of the Pacific Island coins easily...
I wouldn't see it as a nightmare - you can still see details of the original coin. Well unless it happened to be a keydate... Honestly, I would...
The characters "1 yuan" look way too thick. Again, it could just be a modified 1914 1 yuan to make it dated 1916 but this immediately makes it...
It could be a year 3 coin modified to a year 5 coin. But there were no YSK coins struck in 1916. I personally don't like the look for the coin but...
Congratulations for the rare mintset. It's a tough one set that doesn't come that often. I had it offered to me by three different people but I...
marbury's coins all look genuine to me. Even with the chopmark, the crown size coins should command easily over 100USD. The kwangtung 20 cents,...

They definitely do not look original. Kobans were hand hammered so they should not look flat. Here are some examples:...
It's rare to find a mine that only has silver - silver is usually associated with lead, zinc, gold, copper and in some cases uranium. Likewise...
Not adequate at all. I had to research about platinum for my coursework and this is at best mediocre. For instance numismatics had a big play...
The best thing you can do on a scanner is to increase the resolution and then crop out the area that you what to show.
Can't be an original koban because they were NEVER stamped with 999 mark. Most likely post modern replica.
Doesn't look legit. Koban are struck only in gold and never meant to be in silver. As shown, it shows that it's struck in 20g silver but this is...
The last two are definitely counterfeit. The easiest test is, if they are all magnetic, they are all counterfeit. Next if they aren't...
Not genuine. Sorry. If you think you struck the lottery by buying these "coins" for a few dollars, you probably got off worse because these...
