Coins bought at a market

TripWire · Oct 28, 2021

Me & my wife went to an open air fresh food market, one of the vendors was selling these coins. I bought all 3 coins for 30,000 KRW (Korean Won) or about $26.00 USD. Any opinions on this Chinese Grading Company, or do you know anything about it? I was able to use the QR Code to link into the pages.

I appreciate an info you could give. Any idea what the coins might be worth? Real? Counterfeit? History?

Thank you Sir. If someone else's messages me, perhaps I can send them in a private message.

I hope everyone doesn't mind the pictures & me inquiring about this. I was able to scan the QR code on the protective cases, and it linked me to Gongcangcoins website. Who can tell me what about the coins, if you don't mind. I was able to learn a little bit about the coins, like the fact the Chinese like making fake coins. So, I would not be surprised if they are fake. But, the fact that someone put them in plastic cases, did a QR code, and what not for them leaves me wondering. Who knows, maybe the ones I have are fake & they did all this to make them think the coins have been graded...

Don't know about "graded" Chinese coins, or of any high value ones, but you at least have some interesting show-and-tell pieces there!

Thank you. I plan to go back to the outdoor vendor & purchase his book of Chinese Coins. I have no idea what I'll be getting into, or what I'm really doing. It'll be a why not type of purchase.
