I have a ton of these coins at home (as well as many other Chinese coins) and they are shockingly light. I just got into coin collecting, so maybe it's just the fact that I'm used to the weight of American coins (I just ordered like 50 foreign coins that are coming soon, and I'm super excited, but they're not here yet), but these coins literally feel like plastic play coins that I used to have as a child (plastic pennies and nickels). Even the texture and the way the coin drops and sounds-it all resembles plastic. But as you said in the video, it's quite a nice looking coin.
Glad to hear you are getting into coin collecting! Any aluminium coins feel super light and even to me, a Brit, they feel like toy money -- but hey, who am I to judge lol, they look cool in the collection and add more material variation. Hope you get some cool coins in the lot of foreigns you ordered!
Enjoyed your coin overviews! This flower is a chrysanthemum, the 1 yuan coin has the peony.
Great video, really enjoyed your analysis of the coin

Again, these videos are really good, but fhe edge thing has got me wondering; what’s your favourite type of edge? 😉
Well, gotta say a security edge coin is my favourite, love the groove.
