[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 4795005, member: 110226"]Hello I've been spending 100% of my time on the ancients side of Cointalk, but I also have quite a few world coins that I would be happy to share. Here is one, a very large multiple cash coin from the Qing Dynasty, purchased about 15 years ago at auction: 483 Large Chinese bronze "cash" coin, Qing Dynasty (ca. 1722-34). Large Chinese bronze "cash" coin, Qing Dynasty (ca. 1722-34). 87 grams. Like typical "cash" coins, this piece is round with a square hole in the middle surrounded by Chinese characters, but it is unusually heavy and large (2½" in diameter), with attractive green patina and tan sediment all over, no corrosion or damage. Recovered from: Unidentified wreck sunk in the 1700s off Sumatra, Indonesia. With Robert Marx certificate. [ATTACH=full]1164713[/ATTACH] The characters are so crisp and the surfaces are very nice. I almost think of this coin as a presentation coin.[/QUOTE]
