VIET NAM: 5 hao, 1946, KM-2.2, choice Uncirculated, R. Howard Daniels III believes the raised 5 Hao dated 1946 were minted in Shanghai (or another Chinese mint) by the Chinese Communists for Hanoi in the mid to late 1950s and they were used by the Vietnamese Communists as presentation coins; they retained the date 1946. Not all of them might have been shipped to Viet Nam. It is very possible the excess were found at the mint and are being disposed of onto the numismatic marketplace.
