<p>[QUOTE="TTang, post: 7722715, member: 121621"]Taiping Rebellion coins are scarce across all issues..Hartill has a few errors in the book. Say, the Xianfeng Pingding issues (He lists them as R8, when a large chunk of Xianfeng irons on Zeno are of that variety. A contact who specializes in Chinese cash told me). Or Taiwan cash too (Should be around R11 IMO). Taiping coins often command upwards of $50 in Stack Bowers Hong Kong Auction and other auctions. There are scarcer issues too, which bring several hundred. I would be careful though; I once found a similar coin except without the reverse words (mine just said Taiping Shengbao) and thought it was an unlisted Taiping issue (not on Hartill). Turns out it was a Annam issue of some sort. Don't have enough experience with Taiping rebellion coins to give you a definite answer on authenticity but everything checks out[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
