Old Chinese coins come in many different types, although most are probably not genuine. There are many fakes for sale in China today. But although these coins are not necessarily genuine, they are nice to add to your collection and make great necklaces, whether for feng shui purposes (3 tied together with a string) or just for an eclectic feel to your favorite outfit. The coins may vary from the pictures. There are many similar styles and the actual coin could have different calligraphy or a slightly different picture from the listing.
