| Date | No precise year is stated. |

Examine the two-flags 20-cent coin without borrowed facts
Portrait and inscriptions: Photograph the full Sun Yat-sen portrait, surrounding founding commemorative wording and rim. Keep every uncertain character visible within a wider face image.
Flags and value: Show both flags and the complete 20-cent denomination together. A one-yuan value or star position from another commemorative issue cannot complete an unclear device.
Physical cross-checks: Take ordered edge views and, only when safe, note weight, diameter and thickness with units and measuring points. These readings are supporting checks, not substitutes for the coin's own designs.
Hold the coin safely and retain its present surface
Handle a loose coin only at the edge above a dry padded area. Keep toning, deposits, scratches and earlier cleaning unchanged. A fitted holder stays closed; a loose box or certificate remains conditionally associated.
Three views that answer different questions
- Identity view: Use square-on images of both faces to connect the portrait, commemorative wording, two flags and 20-cent value.
- Surface view: Add low-angle light for relief, fields and hairlines while retaining a colour-balanced image for the patina.
- Edge view: Move around the entire circumference in sequence so that a knock, seam, filing or mounting trace can be located precisely.

Questions before an appraisal
What should you check before selling?
What matters depends on the item. Photograph both sides, the edge, hallmarks or base marks, and any damage. Include the original box, certificate or weight information where relevant so we can decide whether an in-person inspection is needed.
