This is listed as a Republic of China coin with the subheading of Taiwan. There is so much history, drama, and politics going on with these two countries that I will just stick to talking about the coin.
With a bust of military leader Chiang Kai-shek and simple flower branches on the back this coin is very understated compared to others. Edges are reeded given it the look and feel of a quarter, although I cannot remember how I got it.
Obverse says year 74 or 1985. Otherwise not sure what the coin says because the symbols are unfamiliar to me. I tried but maybe it is something with the regional characters or maybe I just do not see it. Oh well I welcome any help, this is a learning blog and I love to learn.
Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 10 Yuan / Republic of China - Taiwan
Year: 1985
Mintage: 200,000,000
Metal: Copper-Nickel
Value: Very-Fine about $0.30

I have a question about a Canadian penny I got today. It is a little bigger than a normal one, it's from 1996 and on the back there is a crown, a gate and some chains. I have never seen this before.

ReplyDeleteNot Canadian, it's British.

Was the coin made at the Canadian mint or does it have anything do with Canada besides the Queen portrait? It's a real interesting coin.

ReplyDeleteNo, at The Royal Mint in the UK.
The Queen has been on coins for over 50 countries.
A pretty coin. Is it the same size as a quarter? I'm amazed at how many coins from different countries you come across; I suppose that says a lot about your community.
ReplyDeleteIs it the same size as a quarter?
ReplyDelete--Slightly larger.

ReplyDelete1942 20 centavos coin from mexico. and it has a small blob of metal on each side directly across from one another on the outer edge of rim
ReplyDeleteAbout $2.30 mostly for the silver value, the blob sounds like it was once in a pendant, this is damage.
it says 四十七， in other words 47 so year 47.
ReplyDeleteit says 四十七， in other words 47 so year 47.
ReplyDeleteI would disagree for a few reasons...
-Taiwan made no coins in Year 47.
-Year 47 is 1958 and China made no yuan coins for that year.
-You are reading it from left to right, the coin is written from right or left.
--It should be read, 七十四 which is 74.
-You are reading it from left to right, the coin is written from right to left.
ReplyDeleteCorrected sentence.
