Sorry... :)

Yea I remember watching an old Samurai flick from the 60s and in one scene the Samurai had a box of like I dunno 12-15"x10x10 that was just chocked full of'em... He tossed in another handfull and they made such sweet clinking/Ringing sounds....

Kinda like when I clink several ASE or Generic Rounds together...

Edit, not to long after that scene a damn sneaky Ninja came in through a passage in the attic and swipe teh loot... Now he has the sweet clinking sounds...

Yea, I want a few, but I'm kinda afraid to buy any as I really don't know anything about them as far as how to authenticate them...

I see that a place here carries them:

(or says that it is taking orders anyways) I have dealt with this shop 1/2 dozen times with no problems yet (call me a pessimist).

I've definitely also seen them on ebay, and want to buy them. But I never pulled the trigger cause I have no idea how you can tell if they're real or fake or what.

If you find a way, let us know.

Was channel surfing after the hockey game and saw coins on the shopping channel so stopped to check it out. Of all the coins, one of the samurai coins came up, but at over $250 for about 3 grams of gold with some silver it seems a bit much:
