<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gil-galad, post: 2790798, member: 44154&quot;]I&#039;ll post a couple more coins. The first one is a coin that was minted in Annam in the China region which has it&#039;s own numismatic history. This coin was minted using ancient casting techniques and was not made with a machine. With the patina, it looks like a ancient coin, but it is near modern. Haha.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]648147[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Annam (Vietnam) Cash, Tây Sơn Dynasty Rebellion, Quang Trung (1788-1792 AD), AE24 Cash, 1.95g, 24mm</p><p><br /></p><p>Obverse: 光中通寶, Quang Trung Thông Bảo.
