<p>[QUOTE=&quot;drathbun, post: 1607822, member: 42789&quot;]Hi, in a <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t220079/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t220079/">prior thread</a> I mentioned that my son and I are working our way through a bucket of unidentified foreign coins. The first one was solved by the board in less than 24 hours - on a Saturday no less! - so I have high hopes for the next challenge as well. :smile Here&#039;s a scan that includes both sides of the coin. I had to lighten it a bit to show some detail after the scan. One side has an oriental temple and the other side says 10 followed by oriental characters.</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, we had another set of coins that we were able to identify as being from Taiwan because the back of the coin had an outline of a country. We guessed that it must be the source country for the coins, so we scanned a world map looking for a likely candidate. Once we found one, I searched for &quot;taiwan coins&quot; and found several hits that matched our coins. So even if we can&#039;t read the script, we were still able to identify the coins. Fun times. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
