Here are several pieces I've got over the last few weeks. Most are in being graded now.
1928 Honan (2) 100 and (1)200 Cash (Hard to find about XF with a huge premium a AU example 100 cash is at HA now listed to sell about 500$) Many had planchet issues and were poorly struck. Very large and thick coins
1906 4 Dot Empire 10 Cash (Dragon) weird toning from being in an album
1903-05 Hupoo (empire) 10 Cash Part of a bulk lot from HA

Looks like you have been having fun!
Chinese cash coins, constantly confusing and confounding collectors.
Congratulations, a compelling compendium of coins!

Yes china cash pieces can be extremely hard but alot less fakes than its silver counterparts. They are out there but alot are extremely obvious very thin planchets too nice looking and perfect rims. Silver coins are a nightmare for me. I only get silver from safer sources as i still have alot of trouble tellings the difference between good/bad.
I just worked a deal with a german coin dealer yesterday for these 2 pieces and a nice 8 reales.
1917 Yunnan 50 Cents
1911-15 Yunnan 50 cents
@coffeyce, That 1903 Hupoo 20 Cash Off center is awesome!
