(t) CHINA. Wei Yuanbao. Imitation Principal Ingots. Gold 1 Tael Presentation Ingot, ND. Graded MS-60 by GBCA Grading Company.
cf. BMC-Class XXXIII. Weight: 31.2 gms. Obverse: "Chi Jin", "Tian Jin San Yang", "Chi Jin"; Right: "Jia Lian"; Left: "Jin Liao"; Reverse: "Yi Liang". The stamps are boldly applied to this attractive little ingot. Most of the characters are clear, though a couple do show a bit a weakness that somewhat obscures several stokes. A pale golden coloration coupled with richer patination and minor earthen deposits amongst the devices add to its pleasing appearance and originality.
Estimate: $2000 - $4000
