<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TypeCoin971793, post: 2762765, member: 78244&quot;]I have dozens of unlisted varieties and types. They are not worth much, though. A few of them are even lead.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for your coin, the &quot;Tian You&quot; inscription implies that it was cast by Zhang Shicheng between 1354 and 1357. All of his coins had a calligraphy that was similar to the slender gold script, which was used on many coins of the era. Your coin has the Li script. That alone is not enough to call it &quot;fake&quot; per se, but I think it is extremely unlikely that it was cast any time near the Yuan Dynasty. The fabric reminds me more of Song and Ming coins than aything else. As few official coins were cast from lead, it is also possible that it is of contemporary private manufacture.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
