<p>[QUOTE="The Eidolon, post: 5467062, member: 102103"]So... what's the other 2%? I'm curious--my kids are in a similar situation to you, being "almost" half Chinese. For them, the balance is apparently Mongolian, Manchu and Korean. That approximately lines up with that side's family history, except we don't know about the Korean. The 23andMe percentages keep changing to different numbers every year--I guess they don't have a lot of great population genetic data form that part of the world.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, I have a Wang Mang coin too that looks pretty similar. There was enough variation back then that even if they looked identical it wouldn't say much. I'll try to dig it out and take a photo if I can find it. Fun coins![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
