Porcelain coins and medals

MSD61

Anyone here have some or collect them? I admit I've had a few that have interested me but know little about them. Are they hard to store?

I only have a couple which I'll probably be selling sometime ... they're notgeld from Saxony. They fit in 2x2's okay ... a bit thick, of course, and I try not to keep them in the same box with metal coins.

I have the most common of the three Japanese coins which are usually referred to as "baked clay", but I have seen them called "porcelain". My 1945 1 sen fits nicely in a 2x2 in an album page with my other sen coins.

Along with its 5 and 10 sen siblings, it has the distinction of being one of the least circulated "business strike" coins in world history. Produced in the waning days of World War II, they reportedly circulated for a week or two, only in the central Japan area.

I have two of the Japanese porcelain sen and a fair amount of Manchukuo coins that are often called porcelain but are actually made of magnesium, I think.
