etymology
the etymology needs to be included.68.148.186.93 (talk) 09:55, 2 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Well, according to this article the word "chopmark" actually means "markmark" as the word "chop" just means "mark", I hope this helps. --Donald Trung (talk) 22:17, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

Paper
What about chop marks on paper money? Benjamin (talk) 14:24, 17 November 2017 (UTC)

Still wondering about this. Benjamin (talk) 16:12, 22 March 2018 (UTC)


 * as chop marks have been included on paper money since literally the first banknotes and even before that I'd suggest that you (or someone else) should write an English-language Wikipedia article entitled "Chop marks on paper money" or "Chop marks on banknotes" as these have a very long and intricate history that goes well into the 20th century, so there's plenty to write about. --Donald Trung (talk) 22:20, 25 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I'd love to. Got any sources? Benjamin (talk) 00:32, 26 November 2018 (UTC)


 * apparently they're (chop marks) still being used on modern banknotes, anyhow I would've said the Currency Collector but it relies too much on a Qing dynasty era book filled with false and deliberately misleading information. If I had the sources I would've written about them myself but unfortunately I can't find enough information in my personal library to justify writing an article on them. I do hope that those red links above will turn blue so I can read about them online. --Donald Trung (talk) 19:38, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

Only China？
Did the chop marks only appear on the coins circulated in China? I searched "戳记" by Baidu.com, and found that some coins used in Cuba also were stamped chop marks. see "Silver Coin with Cuba Seal"--Baomi (talk) 01:51, 21 November 2018 (UTC)


 * , great find, feel free to add it to the article, this is currently a stub while there is a wealth of information about chop marks both on coins and on banknotes so feel free to expand this article as you see fit. --Donald Trung (talk) 22:24, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
