<p>[QUOTE="iPen, post: 3200476, member: 69760"]I got one of these Chinese coins that came with a different coin I purchased. Can anyone please confirm what this is? I believe that it may be a Northern Qi Dynasty, Emperor Wen Xuan Di, 553 - 559 AD coin. I found an example online (<a href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/ken_dorney/52/product/h1327__northern_qi_dynasty_emperor_wen_xuan_di_553__559_ad_scarce_to_rare/1042928/Default.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/ken_dorney/52/product/h1327__northern_qi_dynasty_emperor_wen_xuan_di_553__559_ad_scarce_to_rare/1042928/Default.aspx" rel="nofollow">here</a>) that's similar, but my example is a bit wider in diameter at 26.27mm. It weighs a little less than the one in the link at 3.54 grams. Also, the top and bottom designs of the obverse are missing or are worn down, so maybe it's more like <a href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/nbnumismatics/109/product/china_liang_dynasty_emperor_wu__wu_zhu_cash/901892/Default.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/nbnumismatics/109/product/china_liang_dynasty_emperor_wu__wu_zhu_cash/901892/Default.aspx" rel="nofollow">this one</a> despite the different rim appearance.</p><p><br /></p><p>Or, maybe it's one of these other examples <a href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/Search.aspx?search=true&searchQuery=&searchQueryExclude=&searchCategory=2610&searchCategoryLevel=4&searchCategoryAncient=True&searchCategoryUs=True&searchCategoryWorld=True&searchCategoryMedieval=False&searchBetween=0&searchBetweenAnd=0&searchDate=&searchUseThesaurus=True&searchDisplayCurrency=&searchDisplay=1&searchIdStore=0&searchQueryAnyWords=&searchExactPhrase=&searchTitleAndDescription=True&searchDateType=0&searchMaxRecords=100&SearchOnSale=False&Unassigned=False" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/Search.aspx?search=true&searchQuery=&searchQueryExclude=&searchCategory=2610&searchCategoryLevel=4&searchCategoryAncient=True&searchCategoryUs=True&searchCategoryWorld=True&searchCategoryMedieval=False&searchBetween=0&searchBetweenAnd=0&searchDate=&searchUseThesaurus=True&searchDisplayCurrency=&searchDisplay=1&searchIdStore=0&searchQueryAnyWords=&searchExactPhrase=&searchTitleAndDescription=True&searchDateType=0&searchMaxRecords=100&SearchOnSale=False&Unassigned=False" rel="nofollow">here</a>?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks in advance!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]828179[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]828180[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]828182[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
