    I know nothing, so........................................................... yeah. LOL.

    Anyone know anything on these? Real? Period? Scarcity? The top two are likely common. The bottom one looks like it could almost be celebrating something?

      Two Chinese cash coins on top and one medal below, same items on 3 pictures. First picture shows mint names reverse side. Left= Boo-Yuwan mint which is the Kung-Pu Board of Public Works in Peking. Right= Boo-San which is the Shan mint in Sian, Shensi Province. Pictures 2-3 show the obverse side with Emperor's title. Both coins are from 1796-1820, Emp. Chia-Ching. The medal on the bottom with the dates 1850-1861 are the reign dates of Emp. Hsien-feng. The coins are not not hard to find and worth $3-5. The medal could be scarcer since I have not seen before. But I am not a collector or dealer of Chinese coins so my not having seen one doesn't mean that much.

      Thank you so much for your very detailed response! I always wonder if you memorised these things or what, because you always are so helpful.
      I also put it up on Numista and had come up with the same dates but as Boo-Yuwan and Boo-Kiyan, plus a commemorative piece of more recent make as the Chinese weren't supposed to have used Gregorian years so early.
      I posted it here:

      For Chinese cash coins I use the Krause SCWC China section where they illustrate the mint and Emperor's names. Some times the coins are hard to read and I could be wrong.

      They seem like a pretty difficult piece, especially to me who doesn't understand any Chinese characters. Thanks. :)
