    I bought a small lot of these and was hoping someone could help with attribution. I'm pretty sure they are Vietnamese/Annam. Dynasty, date, Toda or Barker number appreciated. Thanks

    Duyen Ninh Thong bao 1453-60 AD Hartill 25.14 - Frank Robinson was selling them at the back of his last sale 3 for $8.95. His list quoted Toda 56 but I don't have that reference so can not confirm it is correct.

    Thanks Dougsmit,



    I found a online resource for Annam coins and confirmed it is indeed Toda 56.....http://art-hanoi.com/toda/16.html


    I got the coins from a dealer I use in China. I pulled some of these out of a mixed lot of 100 Tang/Song coins. I'm pretty good at identifying Chinese coins but I don't have any reference works on Annam coins either. Looks like I got mine for about 40 cents each.
