I have two coins of the last Qing emperor. I don't know much about Chinese coins, I only bought them due to their association with the last emperor of China. Are both of the coins real?

Both real, and both uncommon. You have two nice Chinese late imperial coins!

Thank you for verifying the authenticity of the coins. Its amazing to think that the 10 cash was struck in the final months of an empire that had lasted for over 2,000 years. I often wonder if they saw it coming.
