Hi - I acquired some Asian coins and have found most of them
But having trouble with 7 of them
Anyone any ideas?
Sending photos of both sides
last one is a bit worn
These coins are indeed fake, like Monephil has suggested. The bottom one appears to be Saudi Arabian or Yemenese, but I am somewhat confident that it is not real either.

- Verifying your Asian and British-territorial coins everyday with the best quality photos and the best information.
Sorry I was a bit confused I thought you were calling me Kenny HaHa
I thought they may be fake as I could not find them anywhere.
As you said the last one looks Middle Eastern but it is very worn.
I have another 30 Chinese coins which I have found in the pages here - it's now just a matter of finding out if they are silver.
I have bid for a special silver magnet in Ebay ( see my topic in questions section ).
I just noticed in Ebay that a guy managed to sell a number of fake coins for £134
The buyer only paid £2.80/coin. He'd have to be crazy to think we was getting authentic coins for that but it's probably about the going rate for reproductions. I mean, if you WANTED a half decent fake of an expensive old coin what would you be willing to pay?
