I have the one on the right. I want to say Kwang-tung. but maybe I'm wrong. These two coins are very cheap. 10 cent bin coins.
Left: Qianlong (1736-1795), Board of Revenue mint. Right: Guangxu (1875-1908), Guangdong mint. Worth less than a dollar each.
My mistake, looking back at my chinese coins, @Parthicus is right. However, we both agree on the value. These are "junk bin" coins. I wouldn't ever call a coin junk, as I'm a junkie
In case you have others, here's a great site that helps you to identify Chinese coins by having you answer a series of questions. Each response narrows it down and eventually filters to a much smaller group, against which you can then do a visual match up. www.calgarycoin.com
..coins of the last emperial dynasty of China..they have historical significance..and many times are given as lucky charms to others...
The vast majority of Qing dynasty coins are pretty worthless. I got a really nice generic Qing for $1
Oh no, it's an established site and still good. Here's what happened. When I first entered the website address, I added an "s" after "coin" making it plural. When I realized my mistake, I went back to change it. But, for some reason, when you click on it, it still links to the first (incorrectly spelled) www.calgarycoinS.com. I don't know why - even though I've already deleted the "s." If you enter the address independently, you'll get to the site alright. Sorry about that.
@Evan Saltis, so help me out here - if I entered a misspelled address, how do I correct it, so that it would link to the corrected site? Maybe I should've erased the whole thing and retyped (instead of just deleting the "s")?
Here, highlight the link and click the chain icon which will bring up a bar where you can decide where it links to. The feature is there so I could shorten a long URL to both shorten my posts, but also say exactly where the link will bring you.
