New collector – would appreciate opinions on these coins

Hi everyone,

I recently purchased four Chinese silver coins online, but I have not received them yet.
These photos are screenshots from the seller’s listing.

As I am still new to collecting, I would really appreciate it if you could help me share your opinions on their authenticity.

Thank you very much for your time and help.

    Purchasing raw Chinese coins online is possibly not the best plan if you're not able to confirm authenticity yourself. Maybe not the best plan even if you can.

    About all I know of these Chinese coins is that they are some of the most counterfeited coins of all time. Unless you got them from a legit dealer specializing in them, I would highly doubt they are authentic.

    Ring test them. See how many aren't made of silver.
