<p>[QUOTE=&quot;hontonai, post: 880094, member: 4703&quot;]The Standard Catalog of World Coins uses &quot;Kansu&quot; as the English version of the Provincial name.I absolutely agree.&nbsp; The SCWC lists <i>only</i> a 1 Yuan coin as having been minted in Kansu/Gansu with that design:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://secure.numismaster.com/ta/fwimg/121668/62105650/3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://secure.numismaster.com/ta/fwimg/121668/62105649/3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Genuine ones are 26.6g of .900 silver, and about 38mm wide.&nbsp; A 5 Yuan coin would have to weigh 133g, and either be much thicker, much wider, or both![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
