RE: Steem Silver Gold : Copper Coin Collection
Wow, the details of the copper coins especially from the Japanese imperial time is truly commendable! The effort they make to mint a 2 cents is actually worth much more in my point of view, but that's the beauty of it.

Hey thanks!! Thank you for the info of that is fact? I found it in a box and was drawn to it automatically
Oh the dragon coin read from Japan imperial. I think it is Year 8 of Japan Imperial.
(I can read Mandarin, and Japanese has kanji in it)
Whoa nice! So how old do you think it is? 😯
According to the China Wikipedia on the silver coin of the same insignia, the British minting machine was created in approximately between 1866 to 1868, which is to their Imperial time first year... so this copper could have been produced 8 years later so it could be in estimation between 1874 to 1876
