The Real Coin
The Set Up for the Photo-shoot
| I used these three items to give the three colors of background for photographing the coins. The coins are very reflective and it is difficult to not have reflected images in the photo - the phone, the light in the ceiling, ceiling fan, my hand, etc. |

For the first time ever, a Chinese mint laser etched the year, weight and purity on the rim of the coin.
Silver Dragon coins, also sometimes known as Dragon dollars, were Silver coins issued by China, Japan and later Korea for general circulation in their own countries.
A dragon was featured on the obverse of the Japanese and Korean issues while on the dragon was featured on the reverse of Chinese issues.
These dragon dollars were all originally inspired by the Silver Spanish dollar which following its introduction into the region in the 16th Century had set the standard for a de facto common currency for trade in the Far East -
this specification is a weight of 27.22 grams and a fineness of .900;
the coin thus contained 24.5 g (0.7876 troy oz) of Silver.
Chinese coins of this type are known Kwangtung (้ๆฑ) dollars from the old Romanization of the name of the mint that they were first produced in China, more popularly they are known in Chinese as, "Dragon Silver" or "Dragon Money", capable of being read as both Silver or money.
I found the real one for sale ...
