New Members elliehay Posted April 29, 2018 at 09:23 AM Author New Members Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 at 09:23 AM Thank you so much for your translation! I can't seem to find anything similar to it, or who could tell me if it is worth anything... Will keep searching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
889 Posted April 30, 2018 at 01:48 AM Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 at 01:48 AM I know nothing about these, I just translate. But a quick Google search suggests you might look into 19th century Vietnamese silver, which it seems was sometimes confusingly based on N Song models. For a real answer, though, you'll need to consult an expert on Asian coinage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
