<p>[QUOTE="ScottSemans, post: 4068158, member: 100481"]Newbie to Coin Talk here, long time China coins dealer. Reading post by post I was saying to myself, hey, guy, you've got some junk here and some real gems. Old Hans S. had a reputation indeed, but part of it was for exotic things that weren't quite what they appeared to be. On the one hand, the page of common China $ are slam dunk genuine but as someone said, only around $100, while the things in reflective holders are rarities but there were good fakes of those even in 1958 - was this lot also Schulman, by the way? The two-flag Sinkiang crown is a head-scratcher. I was itching to get to thread end and tell the owner, just send them to Stacks Bowers Ponterio and they will treat you right, decide which need to go to which slabber, and sell at the hottest market i.e. upcoming April HK sale (assuming coronavirus doesn't kill attendance). You did well! The coppers will all get thrown in a big lot w/o photo and described as including fakes, so will go for peanut shells, but hardly matters. You're gonna get a BIG check in June.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
