For a freelance translator, it’s a bit different. Your CV has two main purposes: It needs to get you added to the database – you probably won’t have the luxury of a face-to-face interview, so your CV should make you stand out, and persuade the recruiter that you are the perfect candidate for either a test translation, imminent project,.
Chinese cash coins (round bronze coins with a square hole in the middle) were made for more than 2,000 years. There are hundreds of different types with thousands of varieties.
Of course, those who can read Chinese and are familiar with Chinese coins, or have reference books available, can easily identify a particular coin.
Identifying a Chinese coin can be a real challenge, however, if you cannot read Chinese and are not an experienced collector.
If you are not an 'expert' but happen to have an old Chinese cash coin and would like to know a little more about it, the following simple guidelines may be helpful.
It is very likely that your coin is one of these common types:
If the coin has a character that looks like a coiled line or curlique similar to the character at the left then the coin is from the Qing (Ch'ing) Dynasty (1644-1911).
Some coins produced at the end of this dynasty were copper instead of bronze and were stamped by machines instead of cast in molds.
Please see Qing Dynasty Coins for examples of these coins along with historical information.
If the coin has the Chinese character 開, such as the example at the left, then it is a kai yuan tong bao (開元通寶) from the Tang Dynasty (618-907).
Images and more information on this coin may be seen at Tang Dynasty Coins.
If the coin has only two characters and one of the characters resembles an hourglass or an 'X' with a horizontal line on top and bottom then it is a wu zhu (五銖) coin most likely from the Han Dynasty (206 BC - 220 AD).
Wu zhu coins were actually made over a period of about 700 years.
Many examples of this coin may be seen at Wu Zhu Coins.
Finally, if your coin is not one of the above then there is a very high probability that it is from the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127). Please see examples at Northern Song Coins and detailed historical information at Chinese Coins.

Abstract
This pilot study examined the casino gambling practices of residents and workers in Boston Chinatown. The aim was to learn about the trajectory and life context of individual participants’ gambling activity, including how individual participants describe their motivation, nature and frequency of gambling, and its effects on self and family. The research was conducted by a university based research team in partnership with the Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Center, and with the assistance of the Massachusetts Council on Compulsive Gambling.
The stories told by participants illustrate multiple and overlapping risk factors for problem gambling. Our conceptual approach took into account the dynamic interaction of risk factors from multiple sources: stressors in participants’ daily lives rooted in socio-economic conditions, exposure to targeted marketing aimed at Chinese immigrants inside and outside the casino, casino inducements, family contexts, and individual-level psychological and/or emotional factors. Protective factors include the support of social networks or families.
