Slerk Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 1519 Posts	Posted 02/26/2025 01:00 am I'm not sure if I chose the right category. It's not too soon yet that I plan to go on a trip to Asia. As a numismatist, I am interested in the question of where I can buy coins. I know that there are very good places for collectors in Hong Kong and Jakarta. Do you know any shops in Ho Chi Minh City, Kuala Lumpur or maybe Singapore? I checked the dealer list on the NGK website, but as my experience in Bangkok showed, they may just be offices, with no way to buy anything. Report this Post to the Staff

gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3675 Posts	Posted 02/26/2025 04:39 am When you mean chop coins, do you mean chopmark Chinese coins? There are flea markets but it's one of those buyers beware places. Counterfeits are very bad even 20+ years ago. Who knows how bad they are today.

Spence Moderator United States 32709 Posts	Posted 02/26/2025 07:23 am @slerk, there is a very good old thread by @ultrarant where they travelled the world and posted about the coin shops that they found in various locations. I'm not sure that there is overlap between the places in that thread and your travel plans, but it is probably worth a read. Here is the link: http://goccf.com/t/261670 If you happen to find some good spots, please add on to this other thread when you return. Thx.
