<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oxford Punter, post: 2531693, member: 82092&quot;]Recently I have been digging through coins that I&#039;ve acquired over the years.&nbsp; They were NOT what I was collecting at the time, but were picked up around the edges of other trades.&nbsp; Because of that, they were put in a box and ignored -- up until now.&nbsp; I find I am getting a fair amount of enjoyment out of looking into these coins.&nbsp; I admit up front that I am a lowly novice in these types.&nbsp; But... a good deal of my amusement is in that not knowing!</p><p><br /></p><p>Any and all tutelage about these coins will be humbly and gratefully accepted!</p><p><br /></p><p>The left coin is from, I believe, the Han Dynasty, ~206BC-220AD.&nbsp; I am unsure on the differences between the Western Han and the Eastern Han dynasties, and thus where this coin may fit more specifically.&nbsp; How can I know?</p><p><br /></p><p>The middle coin, I believe, may be the Qin Dynasty, 221-206BC.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The right coin, (I am taking a shot here), may be from the Song Dynasty.&nbsp; Perhaps more specifically, the Northern Song Dynasty, 1056-1063AD.</p><p><br /></p><p>Am I wildly lucky in my guesses, or horribly off-base?&nbsp; Corrections will not hurt my feelings!&nbsp; On the contrary, I would appreciate the education.&nbsp; Thank you!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]541206[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]541207[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
