I found this coin while metal detecting last Friday and can't find anything about it online. Can anyone give me a hand please? Thanks, Rusty
Patience is a virtue! This is the third post about this coin in under thirty minutes. Someone will be along to answer your question but it may take some time for the right person to check in. Richard
Tiawan 5 Yuan minted from 1981 to 1989. Any of those years in mint condition is only worth fifty cents
Date is 70th year of the Republic of China or AD 1981 (Year 1 = AD 1912). The man on the coin is Chiang Kai-shek, the president at the time.
Hi Since my response to your email bounced back to me I'll answer it here so otheres can benifit as well You asked: "Yes, this SEEMS to be a friendly site, however, I've found that not every one reads every catagory on a wevsite, so in posting to ONLY 2 different catagories in order to get a response to a question on a Sunday afternoon, why are you setting rules for a member posting? Just take all the fun out of a website." If you look at section 4 of the forum rules I am not setting rules just pointing them out. You can find the forum rules at the front page of the forum. second post down, labeled "The Rules" 4 – Multiple posts and/or threads. If you have a question, please, first consider the appropriate section of the forum to place your question. If you don’t know, that’s fine, just the pick the one you think is best. However, it is only necessary to ask your question or make your comment ONCE ! Please do not make multiple posts or threads on the same subject, even if they are in different areas or forum sections. Somebody will see your question or comment no matter where you put it and provide an answer if they can. I have yet to ever see a question that could not be answered by somebody on Coin Talk. And please, use some patience. Not everybody is on-line every minute of the day. Usually a question will be answered within a few hours at most. But if your question is not answered immediately, be patient. Some members only visit the site every few days.
