Chinese Coins - chinese 7 mace and 2 candareens coin
Historically , Chinese money coins were cast in copper, brass or iron. In the mid 1800s, the coins were made of 3 parts copper and 2 parts lead. Cast silver coins were periodically produced but are significantly rarer. Cast gold coins are also known to exist but are extremely rare.
Chinese money coins originated from the barter of farming tools and agricultural surpluses. Around 1200 BC, smaller token spades, hoes, and knives started to be used to conduct smaller exchanges with the tokens later melted down to supply real farm implements. These tokens came to be used as media of exchange themselves and were known as spade cash and knife money.
The earlier coins were cast to weight standards in a direct relationship with the denominations, so if you weighted a coin at 12 grams it was nearly certain an one Liang (or 1 Jin) denomination. During the denomination. In the Jaw Dynasty, around about 250 BC, this modified and be start to see coins issued with denomination marks that bare no connection to the weight of the coin. This is best seen on the Ban liang (1/2 Liang) coins of the state of Jaw which can change in weight significantly but the earliest enormous diameter issues weigh at least six grams (and often significantly more), but the size and weight steadily fell and by the point they were last issued in the Han Dynasty are typically seen at 3 grams or even less, but still with the Ban Liang denomination on them.
The Koreans, Japanese, and Vietnamese all cast their own copper cash in the latter part of the second millennium like those used by China.
The last money coins were struck, not cast, in the reign of the Qing Xuantong Emperor shortly before the decline of the Empire in 1911. The coin continued to be used unofficially in China until the mid 20 th century.

Fifty Pence (British Coin) $111.53 The British decimal fifty pence (50p) coin often pronounced fifty pee was issued on 14 October 1969 in the runup to decimalisation to replace the ten shilling note. Despite the coins novel shape, there was initial confusion amongst some members of the public, with the coin being mistaken for both the old half crown and the new ten pence piece. The coin is minted from an alloy of 75 copper and 25 nickel. Between 1969 and 1997 the coin weighed 13.50 grams and had a diameter of 30.0 millimetres. In 1997 the coin was reduced in size to weigh 8.00 grams with a diameter of 27.3 millimetres. Apart from the reduction in size the design remained essentially the same (although the original is no longer legal tender). The coin is not circular but is an equilaterally curved heptagon to aid identification. The sides are not straight but are curved so that the centre of curvature is the opposite apex of the coin. In other words, whilst the coin is of a shape which doesnt have a fixed radius about any point, it does have a fixed diameter as a minimum dimension across the face of the coin.
