Tai Ching Ti Kuo Silver Coin

4 berichten
Hi, I was wondering whether my Tai-Ching-Ti-Kuo Silver Coin is genuine. Attached are pictures of the coin. I obtained it in Hong Kong.

The coin is non-magnetic, and made a ringing bell-like sound when tapped on with another metal. It is 39mm in diameter.

Thanks for any assistance provided.

Welcome to Numista.
Even fakes/replicas are made in silver or copper/nickel
This is a very expensive coin, so these are forged by the Chinese.
I hope you did not pay too much for it....
