<p>[QUOTE="Poetheraven1, post: 1363875, member: 27225"]I recently found the two coins shown below. I believe they are both of the same country, denomination, and date, but since I am very week in reading Chinese, I hope someone can confirm my diagnosis. One coin weighs 2.9g and the other 3.0g. Both are 24mm and appear to be brass. I have found similar coins in the world catalog and am wongering if these are the ones I identified. The catalog number is Y#190 listed under the Chinese Empire, Kwangtung Province. The one in the catalog carries no date and was minted from 1890-1908 is a 1 cash coin and is listed as provincial cast coinage. The catalog says they are milled coins, and I'm not sure if that means reeding on the edge. If so, these coins have a smoothe edge. I would appreciate anyone who can read these coins to share with me if I'm right and exactly what they say?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]159771.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]159770.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
