Hello

Welcome aboard 😃

Rules are to post only one coin per discussion with well defined pictures of obverse and reverse, precise measure of diameter and weight if possible.

But first of all, try the search by image

You'll easily find : 

And some other coins too.

Maybe this should be in blinking red letters?

I apologize, I will make sure to follow the rules in the future. But for this Xuan He Tong Bao, it weighs  5.3g and its diameter is about 25mm. I know the weight is off compared the weight listed here, so I was wondering if anyone here who knows more about it could help. Thanks.

Knowing that the diameter is about 25 mm, I would not rely on a so heavy coin. 

The Hartill do not specify the weight of these 25mm and 30mm coins.

I see. So 5g is considered heavy for this size coin?
