<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sarawakian, post: 51303, member: 1415&quot;]really? Krause does not have it listed?&nbsp; This is a real gold coin, not plated according to my chinese reference book, This is the first gold coin of the Republic era, it was issued on Jan, 1, 1912, weight at 13.3 grams. (there are several gold coin issued before - during the Ching dynasty).&nbsp; According to the chinese reference book, it was stop from minting after Yuan Shih-Kai took control of the government.&nbsp; Thus, came the second gold coin of the republic era, with Yuan Shih-Kai on one side and a flying dragon on the other side.&nbsp; Roy mentioned Y#330, that one came much later during the eighth year of the republic.</p><p>how odd, Krause does not have it listed, what about Kann, does anyone have a Kann&#039;s catelog on chinese coinage can give me some help?&nbsp; thankss[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
