<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TuckHard, post: 7592867, member: 102653&quot;]This coin is quite misplaced; it was minted in present day Indonesia (probably on Bali or East Java) and copies its obverse inscription from a coin issued by the Northern Song Dynasty of China from 1008 to 1016 AD while the reverse poorly copies a Manchu script mintmark that was used by the contemporary Qing Dynasty starting in the 1700s into the early 1900s. I don&#039;t think these have been studied much but I&#039;ve seen one expert&#039;s opinion that these date to around 1800-1900.</p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]1307902[/ATTACH]</p> <p style="text-align: center">Imitation of East Java or Bali</p> <p style="text-align: center">c. 1800-1900 AD (?)</p> <p style="text-align: center">Zinc Cash | 3.11 grams</p> <p style="text-align: center">Obv: Xiang Fu Yuan Bao</p> <p style="text-align: center">Rev: Corrupted Manchu script mintmark</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p><p>Next: Imitation coin that got something wrong[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
