Ive gotten a as said a huge bunch of chinese cash from a relative of mine aswell as an roman and one french coin i think i need help identifying which it is on all and then some possible forensic work on some of the worse corroded examples
im not that avid an collector on any of these coin prefering more modern chinese coins to cash modern european to both old french and roman
cash coins underneat
Forensic work ahead, very badly corroded or used cash with one side or both sides unreadble
Diameter: 23.5mm
Weight: (Ill add on tomorow)
1st cash im lead to believe is Qiánlóng
Boo Cuwan
2nd cash i cant read it good enough to get anything concrete on the emperor nor mint
3rd cash Qiánlóng but i cant make out the mint at all due to corroded back
4th cash Qiánlóng i cannot find the mint again
5th is way to corroded for me to make an educated guess
6th cash Dàoguang Boo Ciowan
7th cash Dàoguang Boo Ciowan
8th cash Xiánfeng Boo Ciowan
9th cash uncertain on the emperor and mint
10th cash Jiaqìng Boo Jy
This is what i believe them to be so far but i can be totally wrong.
Quote: "Frenchlover"All your cash coins are easily identifiable.
I recommend to read this short introduction to the Qing dynasty coinage :
An introduction and identification guide to Chinese Qing dynasty coins.pdf
And you can also read the Numista introduction to this coinage in Numisdoc.
You will be astonished to discover that you will easily identify your coins.
Lets try we'll correct if necessary
ive written what i believe them to be so far any input from your end?

1) Qianlong Boo Chiowan, the most usual of all chinese cash
2) Also Qianlong, you should be able to find the mint
3) The mint is difficult to read, probably Boo Yuun
4) You may browse the Numista catalog for Qianlong to find it
5) The bottom character 熙 is recognizable
6) OK
7) It's not the right mint
8) You didn't show this coin
9) (actually the 8th coin) You should be able to find it
10 (actually the 9th coin) OK

So did you really help Terrazone to learn HOW TO?
I gave him hints and he made his own search. You know, at the beginning it might look compex to decipher a chinese cash, so you can't request to find every thing only by yourself, at the risk of being disgusted by the magnitude task to be accomplished

I see your point, but I don't agree with the amount of help (too much in my opinion) you gave him. At least I have other priorities than to help with I can't remember how many coins he asked help about. Normally ONE per mail we accept, but it should stop there, non?

Now as for the rest i dont get your what point your making?

if thats how you see it.
I don't mind to help somebody to learn how to find a solution on his own, but NOT just to give the solution. There is a slight difference.
