Chapter 523: The Ten Treasures of the Copper Yuan

After talking and laughing with everyone, Populus euphratica also picked up one thing, which was made of copper, but it was different from bronze, it seemed to be made of brass, it was a fat pig, fat and chubby, very cute, two big fists, hollow.

This is a living piggy bank! It's just that there's a hole missing from the back.

"This should be a piggy bank used by children to put money, right?"

The beckoning cat just now has already made a deep impression on everyone. Now, no one dares to say that this thing was made in modern times. Perhaps, as early as more than a thousand years ago, the ancients invented something similar.

Hu Yang explained: "No, this image of the piggy bank has not been around for too long, to be precise, it has been decades.

However, the piggy bank appeared very early. In the Han Dynasty, there were similar things, which were called puffs at that time, and also had other names: sacs, stuffy gourds, piggy banks, etc. ”

"Is this a piggy bank, how do you put it in?" Andy wondered.

He didn't find an opening!

Hu Yang held the copper pig and shook it twice, and everyone heard something turning inside. There is no doubt that someone has put something in there a long time ago, and it is basically a piggy bank.

It's just that many people don't understand, how did they put things in?

Hu Yang also looked at it for a while, and through his clairvoyant eye, he saw that there were traction lines and so on, as well as a few silver dollars and the like.

He pretended to observe for a few seconds, grabbed the copper pig with both hands, and pressed the pig's eyes with the thumbs of both hands, with a little force. The pig's eyes were pressed in, and the pig's mouth opened.

This scared everyone.

"Is this another mechanism?" someone couldn't help but ask.

Hu Yang smiled: "It's not a mechanism, it should just be a simple switch to make this thing more interesting." After all, this is something that is a hundred years old, and it is not a technology. ”

As he spoke, Hu Yang poured out the contents. Three silver dollars, and one copper dollar.

Seeing the smile on Brother Hu's face, everyone can guess that these four things are precious and should be very valuable!

Hu Yang didn't say a word, just paid the bill, and turned the things into his own first.

For this reason, the original price was only 200 yuan, and the poplar directly transferred 2,000 yuan. The uncle who was dancing the square dance with his aunt was hilarious and didn't have time to pay attention, but the mobile phone in his pocket came out of the reminder sound of Alipay to collect money, and he knew that people had paid, but the music was a little loud, and he didn't hear much clearly.

"Brother Hu, this is Yuan Datou. Lu Daqiang couldn't help but stretch out a hand and take away an observation.

He has grown so big, and he has never seen the real Yuan Datou, so he is a little curious about what he looks like.

"Well, it's Yuan Datou, who likes to collect it. Hu Yang didn't care about the one Lu Daqiang took.

The Yuan Datou silver dollar was widely circulated before the Anti-Japanese War, and has existed for a long time since then, and has played an important role in the reform of the currency system in modern China.

The one that Lu Daqiang took was a semicircle of Yuan Datou in the third year of the Republic of China, and the collection price of this ordinary silver dollar was only three or two thousand yuan.

"Ah! This thing is very expensive, right?" Lu Daqiang didn't dare to ask for it casually, Brother Hu was already enough to take care of him in front, and he couldn't help but know each other, so he always reached out and asked for it!

Hu Yang explained: "It's okay! You can take it! Yuan Datou is also divided into many kinds, and you are a semicircle of Yuan Datou in the three years of the Republic of China, and there are more surviving in the world, and there is nothing special, so the value is not high, only about 2,000." ”

What Yuan Datou is really valuable is the signed version.

One is the English signature version of the Italian plate maker that was trial-minted by the Tianjin Mint in the third year of the Republic of China, and the other is the signed version of the left side of Yuan Shikai's face and the back of his neck. The above two types are sample coins, which have never been officially circulated, so there are not many surviving coins, and the collection value is high, generally selling for millions, or hundreds of thousands.

Hu Yang gave the remaining two Yuan Datou to Ye Mei and Zhu Zi respectively, and they were both worth three or five thousand.

Hearing what Brother Hu said, everyone will accept it with peace of mind and make a souvenir. If they play collection, they are playing this kind of inexpensive one, and wait for the appreciation in the future.

"So, this copper coin is the most valuable?" Xu Hong asked.

Copper is worth more than silver, who is to reason with this?

I saw that the center of the obverse of the copper coin is Yangwen "Huai", the outer ring is cast "Daqing copper coin" and bead circles, and there are the words "Hubu" on the left and right; the upper edge is cast in Manchu and Ganzhi years "Bingwu", and the lower edge is cast in "Dang Qian Twenty Wen"; the middle of the reverse is a dragon pattern, the outer ring is cast bead circles, and the outer ring is cast in English and Chinese "Guangxu year".

The overall molding is exquisite and deep, the pressure is excellent, the bottom plate is flat and smooth, the dragon pattern has a strong three-dimensional sense, the dragon scales are clear and complete, the oxidation is uniform, the chocolate primary color pulp is with the bottom light, and the version is good.

Hu Yang nodded and said with a smile: "It's good luck to meet this kind of baby." It is the top rare copper dollar of the Qing Dynasty, and this one is worth three or four million. ”

A group of people stared at each other, three or four million copper coins?

What do you want to say?

This one is the 20 copper yuan of the Qing Dynasty coined by Qingjiangpu with the word "Huai", which belongs to the trial casting sample coin, and ranks among the top ten treasures of the copper yuan, which is very precious.

Hu Yang told everyone that there was another copper coin in the Qing Dynasty that was very valuable, and it was not inferior to the one in front of him.

That is, Sichuan Province made Guangxu ingots 30 Wenshui dragon copper pattern coins, there are only 12 in the world, which shows the rarity, and it is natural that it is expensive, and it is also three or four million ranks.

The copper dollar has been manufactured and circulated in China for only more than half a century, although it is only a short moment in the long history of monetary development, but its quantity is huge, the variety is varied, and the distinction between shapes and varieties is extremely complex, and it can be said that no kind of coin in history can compare with it.

In recent years, as the price of silver coins has risen, the copper dollar market has also quietly started, especially rare patterns and high-quality circulating coins, which are worth more than they used to be.

Ye Mei was very lost, millions passed by her again, and staying with Brother Hu was the most uncomfortable time like this. I feel like the opportunity to make a fortune has slipped away from me again and again.

Xu Hong, Teacher Ren and others shook their heads helplessly, Hu Yang's ability and luck to pick up leaks are really difficult for others to copy.

"When, when you get all the ten treasures of the copper yuan, that's amazing. Hu Yang smiled.

This goal still needs to be had. Not only the top ten treasures of copper yuan, but also the top ten famous swords, ten calligraphy works, etc., are in hand, and that is the real cow.

However, some are destined to be unfinished, after all, they are all in the museum, and you still want to get them out, unless the Third World War, or even the Fourth World War, is there such a possibility.

Of course, some are not unique, such as the ten treasures of the copper yuan, although there are very few in the world, each of them has a certain number, and there is a chance to collect.
