I asked ChatGPT about the coin from Taiwan. Here is what he had to say: "it’s a Republic of China (Taiwan) 1 Yuan coin, issued after 1949 following the ROC government’s move to Taiwan. These were typically struck in brass and circulated widely during the 1960s–1970s. The plum blossom is the ROC national flower, and the reverse botanical imagery reflects themes of agriculture and prosperity common in postwar Taiwanese coinage."

Thank you, Rob. That's very interesting. I love the history of these foreign coins.
That’s very interesting Rob, thanks for sharing that research with us! You seem like a good person.
This one is so cool, just imagine the journeys all those coins took to end up in eastern USA!
And the stories those who lost the coins could tell.
True. They are woven inextricably together.
Wow! I have only found two foreign coins and both were magnet fishing. That is kool!
