<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TrungQuocDon, post: 3165394, member: 97349&quot;]<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_numismatic_charm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_numismatic_charm" rel="nofollow">Chinese charms and amulets</a> are a type of &quot;coin&quot; used in China since the Han Dynasty, they are commonly referred to as &quot;flower coins&quot; (Huaqian) or &quot;Yansheng Coins&quot; in China and&quot;Chinese amulets&quot; outside of China. I personally don&#039;t collect them but am very interested in reading about them so I wrote half a dozen Wikipedia articles about their various categories and symbolism, an example of this would be &quot;<a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-work_charm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-work_charm" rel="nofollow">Open-work charms</a>&quot;. According to David Hartill there are over 5000 variants of these coins (a number comparable to the variants of the Sangpyeong Tongbo cash coins from Korea or Chinese banknotes produced between 1912 and 1949).</p><p><br /></p><p>As of now I&#039;ve imported 100% of Gary Ashkenazy&#039;s Primaltrek to Wikipedia (information-wise) and came to the realisation that a lot of images are missing. </p><p><br /></p><p>first of all I am not sure if this is &quot;promotional&quot; as I really wouldn&#039;t want to promote a Wikimedia project to anyone but as many images are missing, are there people here who collect these Chinese amulets willing to upload them to Wikimedia Commons? If this type of post is considered &quot;spam&quot; then please excuse me for asking, but there aren&#039;t many coin collectors on Wikipedia.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
