dustin43160 Posted August 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Thanks ccg! Any idea on the price of a coin like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 I'll defer to gxseries since I'm not too up to date on Chinese coin values. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Need better photos to start off with dustin. I'm guessing it's a Henan coin from 1910s but not too sure what the denomation is. It could be 10, 20, 50, 100 or 200 cash. Most of them are cheap with the exception of a couple of coins which command a higher premium regardless of the condition. Here's a common 50 cash: Here's the scarcer type: Notice that it says China instead of Honan on the top? The rarer type is the 20 cash variety which says China instead of Honan. Now that's really uncommon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustin43160 Posted August 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Thanks gx! The coin is very worn down. Would it be worth using acid on to find out if its a china coin? I only paid 10cents for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
