    Not a recognized mint apparently. I knew when the coa said --xxxxx. Souvenir co that I might have a problem. Kind of a piss off, but oh well

    You knew that it didn't come from an authorized mint when you bought it?

    I have just received my 1990 5 oz silver Eight Immortals Medal.
    I love this medal and photos do not give this medal enough justice.
    This is now the crown jewel of my small Chinese Coin and Medal Collection.
    I have posted some pictures.
