eBay gamble - China "fat man" 50 cents and dollar

Recently took a [not exactly cheap] gamble on a small nondescript foreign coin lot and I'm very pleased with the result. Unfortunate that the dollar has a significant chop in a prominent place, as it is otherwise a sharp and lustrous coin. Luckily the 50 cent piece is very nice and without any apparent issues. Also came with a China/Taiwan silver commemorative listed in the Unusual World Coins catalog. I normally would not recommend gambling on coins like these, but sometimes you just can't deny your gut
50 cents year 3 (1914) Y# 328
Dollar year 9 (1920) Y# 329.6
2000 yuan 1966 X# 610
Highly enthusiastic about world coins, contemporary circulating counterfeits and unusual stuff
