[QUOTE="Flamandets, post: 2959119, member: 92292"]Yes, it was "gxseries" who initially called my attention on the Poem Coins. I am now so far in collecting them, I am awaiting the last four coins to complete the collection of twenty. At my usual numismatic forum there is little (or none) interest in Poem Coins, but I am rather fond of them. The twenty pieces are just filling an album page and arranged in the traditional Chinese "zongpai", right to left vertical script, one can respect the lines of the "poem". Collecting them, I learned: the genuine NAN, GUANG and YUN are more reddish (by a higher copper percentage). The NAN, GUANG and TAI fit in a 25mm coin holder. The rest of the coins have brass colour and need a coin holder of 27,5mm. By the end of the month, I hope to have my collection of Poem Coins completed.[/QUOTE]
