<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1294279, member: 26302&quot;]Usually sir the chopmarks are a detriment to value. What might be happening is that the examples old enough to have chopmarks are the older style MT&#039;s. They are not all the same coin, and there are tiny differences that differentiate when they were struck, and hence collector value. There are some MT&#039;s very valuable, and not just worth bullion value. </p><p><br /></p><p>While chopmarks are akin to counterstamps which can increase value, most western collectors have not begun to collect them, which is why chinese chopmarks usually decrease value of an item.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope that helped.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
