I got these coins today at my LCS. What are they? Thanks in advance! The first coin I believe is a Connecticut halfpenny but I don't know what year or variety. The second coin is from Hessen but I don't know what denomination. The third coin I believe is from Korea but I don't know what year. The last coin I believe is a William Henry Harrison hard times token but I am not sure.

Yang Hoa, you have your own reference material you must use regularly but what is your assessment of the information at the link provided in the post by IdahoTokens, immediately preceding your reply? It's always nice to get reference sites that are reliable. Thanks for any insight.

I'm not sure as I don't use them for reference. I use Chinese language sites and Chinese language articles when looking up info. Then post a wiki link because it's in English.

Thanks and it's nice to know you find Wikipedia helpful and accurate enough to use as a reference.

I do a quick glance of the English info and it does have some of the same info as the Chinese sites I use for research. In the future I can post the chinese links. I've done that a few times in the past. For example here is info on the above coin on china's baidu site

And from a chinese site I found what the back of the coin looks like.
