CHINA. Yunnan Sanchuo Jieding. Provincial Three Stamp Remittance Ingots. Silver 5 Tael Bank Ingot, ND. VERY FINE.
BMC-Class LXVI Group I # 826. Weight: 185.58 gms. "Wang yu feng hao hui hao wen yin" (Wangyufeng Bank, remittance bank fine silver), Right: "Guan gong gu she kan" (Inspected by official public assayer She), Left: "Guan gong gu tong kan" (Inspected by official public assayer Tong). This wholly original looking example displays rich old mottled slate patina with minor earthen deposits in the protected areas. The stamps are deeply applied with good definition of the calligraphy, though due to the surface debris some characters are slightly obscured. A few test cuts are noticed on the front and the left wing tip has been pierced for suspension adding a bit of charm. Despite its shortcomings a presentable example this is great for the collector on a budget.

Ex: Ponterio Sale # 135 (9/2005) Lot # 886.

Estimate: $400.00- $600.00
