kunanumis Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Dear colleagues, I have 3 Asian coins for which I need identification. #1 I assume that this is Chinese cash coin. Diameter: 28 mm. However, I don't know know more details like: country/issuer, date, catalog No. #2 I also assume that this is Chinese coin. Diameter: 38 mm. #3 This is Japanese mon coin. I would also need info about more details. Thank you in advance for your help. Zlatko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Off the top of my head... 1. Japanese 2. Chinese charm. The four characters could be roughly translated as "accumulate wealth" (i.e. general good luck charm) 3. yes, it's a Japanese "100" piece.

Finn235 Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 1. Japanese 4 mon, kanei tsuho type, 11 waves. Late 1700s 2. Fantasy charm 3. Tenpo Tsuho 100 mon, 1830s-1869. Beware of fakes; genuine pieces should have validation marks punched into the rim at about 3 and 9 o'clock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
