[QUOTE="SorenCoins, post: 7948280, member: 73708"]Thank you so much! That is really helpful! You may have just convinced me to buy Hartill's book! My coin weighs 4.02g and is very slightly less than 24mm. Maybe 23.7ish (based on a ruler), so it must not be a palace coin! I was curious if the images in Hartill's book (which are extremely helpful) show exactly what the coin should look like, or if there can be some variation. If it's exactly as the coins look, my coin is definitely not 22.201, since the Boo-Chiowan on my coin is not that large. Then, it's between .203 and .204. I would think the diameter would make it .204, but the chiowan on the reverse is very straight, narrow, and rigid... just like on .203. It is not broad like on .204. Then again, my whole process could be wrong because I ruled out all Type Es on the premise that they had the コ radical in 通 wheras my coin has the マ radical, but 22.245 appears to be a Type E with the マ radical, so I am not sure! Anyways, here are the pictures of my coin (if you know what it is, please give hints only not spoilers, lol!) [ATTACH=full]1376691[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1376692[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
