    I once found this Chinese coin on the street. Diam. 22.5 mm. I'm sure you're better at Chinese than I am, so maybe you can translate the text and tell me how old or young it is ?

      Thank you very much prostata. I didn't expect any value at all. I was only curious about a translation. I wonder why such a fake coin was lying on the street ?!
    3. apostata apostata, 7 months ago
      in putian district they make a lot of fakes,and even real qianlong coins do peanuts

      even silver coins are highly suspect they mess up the bullion ( depreciation)

      you ALWAYS !!! stay out of chinese coins, unless you got the right gear , which cost quite a lot of money, otherwise you buy NGC approved
