Nice pile-o-stuff! Love the silver!

Your square holed coin is a chinese cash coin... I made a diagram of the charactors and how to pronounce it - and what the front and back mean (kinda). It is not rare. Ch'ien Lung T'ung Pao is the most common standard cash in the history of the Chinese coinage. That means it's worth maybe three bucks. :P

Cool find!

The Chinese coin wins!

I still like the 1942 quarter. That coin saw some circulation in its day!
