You are damaging your coins every time you touch them. Clanking them together and hammering them on your desk isn't help either. Oh, and blowing spit on them doesn't help much either.

If they were valuable, they're less valuable now that they've passed through your hands.

@qwastyyy

These are coins that have been touch by thousands of people in the past - they're not oil paintings.

[qwastyyy]

@EpicAthiest

That's how coins that are not handled by people like you become more valuable. Your coins will gradually become worse and worse, while the ones that are properly preserved will remain as they were found.

[EpicAthiest]

@qwastyyy

Sure. If it's 1000 years old. This is silver, not sand.

Besides, these coins aren't rare. It's only worth as much as the silver content rather than collector's value.

Your coin is worth between 25 and 45 dollars I can give you a better price if I could see the coin more clearly but no more than 45 dollars. Sorry to disappoint.

hmm....

I saw on a site which auctioned it off for 1k but thanks for the appraisal.

My aunt just went to china and she saw a bunch of them. She even bought me back 4 of them. (not replicas) the "big head" (yuan da tou) has yuan sher Kai on it hence the name. Not sure about the other one.

The Junk is again Worth 90 bucks at best. There are expensive grades and dates (Year 8 Fatman's and Year 21 Junks, Most MS-65+ certified ones )that go for high prices, But these aren't them.

Also, who told you that you can blow on silver to determine if it's real? You should punch them in the face.

[Slowwavesix]

10 Minutes of research would have to you what these were. The FATMAN dollar is Yuan Shi Kai, that cross in the legend means Year 10 of the founding of the republic of China, or 1921. In that grade it's worth 60-80 bucks. On the "Junk" Dollar the two lines, a cross, then three lines means year 23, or 1934. Most Year 23 Junk never circulated in Mainland China, they were struck in 1949 with the earlier date for the Kuomintang in Taiwan for Chiang Kai-shek.

And that Sun Yat-sen on the front

those coins are actually rare because there old so ya>}<

[ruotze]

Those two coins are not rare. They go by the names "Yuan Da To", and "Chinese Junk" coin. You're lucky if you get $25. each for them. I have thousands of coins in my Chinese coin collection,...some going back to the Warring States period (450 B.C.) & earlier. Even in the authentic coins silver content was not 100%. Thanks for showing.

Sorry to break this to you. You may in possession of couterfeit coins. China makes many couterfeit coins such as the Morgan and Peace dollars.

If they are real,  they are worth its silver melt value.

Also I highly doubt anyone would throw away these coins in the sewer because they were afraid of the communist. They would have simply melted these coins down into bars instead.

@EpicAthiest

My point is that you THOUGHT it was rare, and you were damaging them while you were explaining how you thought only 20 of them survived. If you ever get more valuable coins in the future, it would do you good to listen to me, because you will eventually lose money if you don't.

Put your coins in a high quality holder, and leave them in there. NGC holders are the best, but Airtite holders are good quality, and much cheaper. You will be able to enjoy your coins without damage.
