Nice!

What mint is it from? Paris, Brussels, St. Petersburg?

Not that nice supposedly. It is heavily cleaned. AU 53 is not appropriate I believe.

welcome to coinpeople

Thank you Corina!

This is a brilliant book of modern Chinese coins. 

The last Showa coins: 1 Yen, 5 Yen, 10 Yen and 500 Yen.

NGC AU53

Here is mine.

This George V (Jubilee) 1935 Crown is one of my favorites.

Hi everyone, recently I was confused when I did some research about Manchukuo patterns. Firstly, I found two samples of "Shizuo"(试作) with a Confucius face on the obverse. Both of them have a "3" on the other side. What is that suppose to mean? Does it suggests that there are 1 and 2 exsist?

Secondly, This 1 Yuan pattern listed in 旧満洲国貨幣図鑑 by 松宝庵 菅谷信 was weird. Hanyu Pinyin was created in 1950s. Why did it appeared in Manchukuo? 

Best wishes
