The Zombie Finger Thread

[Mojo Turbo]

So I want to know about the gold coin on the zombie finger... is this just a plain ol gold Chinese luck coin that you see everywhere on the internet, or does it have particular markings?

For instance: is it just one of these?
Chinese Luck Coins

Thanks in advance,

Im 85% sure they use these coins.

Thank you, a quick google search revealed this is a Qing (Ch'ing) Dynasty coin which was cast in the years 1796-1820 AD during the reign of Emperor Ren Zong. The inscription is jia qing tong bao (嘉庆通宝).

I found a 1725-1735 coin for my ZF but I think nobody will notice that

It looks a tad bit grey looking in some of the shots, but overall, I think it looks pretty good. The metal looking tooth/nail is realy selling it for me......

[Jinkxed Jack]

The tooth looks way out of proportion to me. The metal part looks great, but the roots are just too big and don't sit right with me. Other than that, it looks fine.

So has no one bought one from MV? I might have to be the first of us.....

[Mojo Turbo]

Nobody I know has bought one... I think I asked him to be a member once, but nothing came of it...

[capt.J.j.sparrow]
