[QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 3908567, member: 83845"]Thanks for the note Sallent. One of these days I intend to acquire the necessary references to dig deeper into the theories for dating these Chinese coins. For now I'm content enough to know this piece was circulating during what I consider a very interesting historical time. It's a great coin and I'm happy I acquired it. Excellent coins Gandalf :) I think familiarizing oneself with Chinese geography and place names at least to a basic level is a big help. Then it is much easier to follow along with podcasts or books. I really enjoyed the lecture series "Foundations of Eastern Civilization" I listened to through my audible subscription. Not entirely focused on China but it gives a good overview on East Asian history. From there it has been a bit easier for me to do additional reading. [URL]https://www.audible.com/pd/Foundations-of-Eastern-Civilization-Audiobook/B00FX74JKC[/URL] Thanks for the suggestion. I will have to give it a shot. Nice coins [USER=79017]@Andres2[/USER] . I also enjoy the colorful patina on many of these.[/QUOTE]
