<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Parthicus, post: 7885517, member: 81887&quot;]For the two square-holed coins:</p><p>Top is the Qianlong emperor (1736-1795), Board of Works mint in Beijing.&nbsp; Bottom coin is Jiaqing emperor (1796-1820), Yunnan province mint.&nbsp; Both are very common coins, so despite the age they have little resale value in this condition, probably less than a dollar each.</p><p><br /></p><p>The two bronze coins with flags are indeed Republic of China, roughly 1912 to 1920s.&nbsp; (Republic of China at that point was all of mainland China.) The coin with the dragon and inscription (in Roman letters) TAI-CHING-TI-KUO is from late in the Empire, c.1890s to 1912.&nbsp; There are roughly a bajillion varieties of both the Empire and Republic copper coins, but unless there&#039;s a really rare variety that I&#039;m overlooking these are also worth not more than a dollar or so each.&nbsp; Not a lot of monetary value here (again, unless I missed a rare variety) but some interesting historical relics you&#039;ve got there.&nbsp; Maybe some specialist here can provide more detailed attributions and catalogue numbers.&nbsp; Hope this helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
