Hello, currently a common Yuan Shih Kai dollar in VF condition (worn, but still good looking) is about 600 Chinese yuan, or a bit less than $100 USD.

Hello, I found very interesting your article. We have a question, do you know about the same type of coin of Yuan Shi Kai Dollar made in Gold. Maybe a Pattern or a Presentation Coin

The coin have the following caracteristicts (I have pictures) diameter 40 mm, hight 3 mm (aprox, I know that in silver there are one edition of 2.8 and other of 3.2 mm but with my instruments I can’t precise more, Weight 37,24. There are not a name L Gorgi marked.

I have doubts about authenticity, density is not for gold of 900 mm or 22k, but exemplar in silver weight is 26,7 g.

Thanks, all your information will be very interesting for me.

Hello, the value of a coin varies sensibly according to its condition. If your coin is well preserved, it will be worth much more than if it has been circulated and has become worn out as a result. You should send me pictures of your coin using the Appraisal page, so I can evaluate its condition.
