The young man scratched his scalp, as if this is the truth, if hundreds of thousands of years of porcelain are the same as new, no one will want it, but this one is not new, but the porcelain is dense, so what should I do?
The things in the third box are more miscellaneous, gold and silverware, bronze, portrait bricks, small jade carvings, everything is different, and it is laid out in a mess.
The flashlight flickered slightly in the box, and a burst of golden reflection dazzled Wu Di's eyes, is there really gold jewelry? He took a fixed look, picked up the pot with a bright golden reflection under the flashlight, and the look of surprise in his eyes flashed, this pot was really golden! If this is a fraud, it will take a lot of thought.
The surface of this pot is uneven, and the spout part can also be clearly seen traces of welding, not like a new thing. Looking at the dragon and phoenix patterns depicted on the pot, Wu Di preliminarily decided that it should be an object of the Ming Dynasty, but there was no payment throughout the body, and it was obviously sloppy to judge only by the style of the ornamentation.
The identification of antiques involves many aspects, and it does not mean that everyone can tell you the age of an object when they get their hands on it. In particular, if there is no obvious mark on these miscellaneous items, the origin of them should be judged according to their inheritance or the ancient tombs that have been excavated. And this piece belongs to the category of the age that cannot be judged from the object itself.
"Where did this thing come from?"
"This one? This one came out of an ancient tomb in the Ming Dynasty. Dragon and phoenix pattern gold holding pot, treasures. ”
"Ancient tombs of the Ming Dynasty? Hehe, it seems that you are also masters, just because the ornamentation seems to be from the Ming Dynasty, there is an ancient tomb of the Ming Dynasty? If this thing is not clearly inherited, I'm afraid it's not easy to sell. ”
"Hehe, sell things according to your conscience, buddy never lies. If this thing hadn't come out of the tomb of the Ming Dynasty, I would have given it to you for nothing! For this thing, I heard that those people also threw a human life inside! Originally, there was another piece of Ming blue and white together, but unfortunately it was shot a few days ago. If you really don't believe me, I don't have a problem. ”
"Then treat it as if it was from the Ming Dynasty, how to sell it?"
"One million seven million!"
Wu Di shook his head, after the appraisal of the Book of Heaven, this thing is really as the young man said, it is an object of the Ming Dynasty. However, its origin is not necessarily the Ming Dynasty tomb he said. But whether he's making it up, or if it's true, he'll find out as soon as he makes a counteroffer.
Wu Di put the pot aside. He picked up a round jade pendant from the box.
The material used in this jade pendant is Hetian jade, which uses the technique of multi-layer carving to carve deer, oak trees, travertine stones, lingzhi and other things on one side. Among them, the sika deer that was foraging for food was fat and strong, with big horns, and a leisurely expression, which was very vivid. The oak tree is carved on both sides, the leaf edge is shaped like a serration, and the leaf veins are a series of inscribed lines. The deer, oak leaves, and lingzhi patterns are all represented by deliberately retained golden yellow jade skin, and the trunk and mountain stone patterns are set off with the white part of the jade, presenting a beautiful scenery of the autumn mountains.
The composition of this jade pendant is reasonable. The carving is exquisite, and the use of jade skin can be said to have reached everyone's realm, and the preservation is also very good. But Wu Di looked all over and didn't find any money, and it was difficult to tell which dynasty it was from the shape. It's just that judging from the pulp, it is likely to be a modern thing.
"Where's this one?"
"This standing deer ornament is carved from the finest sprinkled gold skin and Hetian white jade, and the jade quality is close to mutton fat jade, although there is no clear judgment on the age. But judging from the pulp, it should also be something of the Ming Dynasty. Dude, here's one thing to say, this piece wasn't unearthed from that ancient tomb. But with this material, carving, and pulp, it's not expensive to ask you for 3.8 million, right? ”
"It's not expensive, if it's really something from the Ming Dynasty, it's really not expensive. However, I have a few questions, first, the shape of the sika deer in the Ming Dynasty will not be so fat. The second is the problem of pulp. The heirloom jade is produced very quickly, and it can be seen in twenty or thirty years. The generation of pulp in the soil is much slower, and the fastest can be more than 100 years, and many jade artifacts will never produce pulp in the ground. Therefore, with the thickness of the pulp of your jade piece, there are only two possibilities. One may be something from the late Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China, and the other may be something from the end of the last century. Regardless of the age, just look at the materials and carvings, 300,000 is a more reasonable price. If you think it's okay, I'll bring it, and if not, I'll take another look. ”
The young man's face is full of bitterness, but his heart is full of joy, and he is afraid that you will not bargain when selling things, as long as the counteroffer is low, there is a talk! This person looked at several things in a row, and only this one returned the price, which proves that he really likes it and wants to take 300,000 yuan? Hehe, let's talk slowly.
Wu Di took a look at it with the Book of Heaven before making a counteroffer, and this Lilu jade ornament was actually something from the Jin Dynasty! can look at the appearance, but it doesn't look like an unearthed object, which creates a lot of room for him to bargain, so the knife is a little ruthless, and he has other considerations.
There are about seventy or eighty items in the box in total, in addition to these two, Wu Di has also got his hands on more than a dozen items, not that there are really so many noteworthy good things, but because since he has found an object worth selling, he has to prepare for the next bargain.
The fourth box is still miscellaneous, with bamboo and wood carvings, inkstones, ink blocks, copper coins, etc., but it is much more neatly placed than the third box.
As a collector, there is not a single copper coin in Wu Di's collection, which cannot but be said to be an outlier. However, if you look back at his experience in the past ten months, this phenomenon is very normal, because he has hardly visited any domestic antique markets normally.
Wu Di handed the flashlight to the military advisor, grabbed a handful of copper coins and looked at them one by one.
The types of copper coins handed down in ancient China can be varied, and the list is endless. Moreover, when it comes to collecting copper coins, it is not that the older they are, the more precious they become. Because as a circulating currency, its amount is too large, and it is likely that tens of thousands of copper coins of that era can be unearthed from an ancient tomb.
One of the more precious and valuable ones is the wrong coin, and the other is some small regimes, or emperors who have been in power for a short time, and their currency issuance is relatively small, so they are naturally more precious. There is another kind, which is the mother money.
The mother coin is a standard model coin made by the central and local governments when a large number of coins were minted in ancient times. The use of mother money as a model can be divided into three types, namely money sample, carved mother money and cast mother money.
There are many controversies in the academic circles about the mother money, and many of the so-called mother money that have survived have been questioned, and there is even more controversy about whether the earliest carved mother money is the ten coins of the Ming Dynasty Jiajing Tongbao or the heavy treasure of Li Hengqian Yuan of Tang Suzong. As for whether the mother money exists, whether only the carved mother money can be identified as the mother money, etc., it made the scholars of the two factions almost fight.
Wu Di read a handful, changed it again, and after a while, he looked at a small pile of copper coins, but there were no fakes, but the most expensive ones were worth a few hundred yuan a piece, and for him, there was no collection value.
He picked up an inkstone, looked at it, and put it back. With the batch of treasures that he got back from the Royal Lake in Myanmar, he is not very interested in this thing now, he is too lazy to look at them one by one, and he just needs to hug them one by one with the book of heaven in the end.
picked up a wood carved doll casually, and before he had time to look at it, his eyes were shaken by a slight reflection, what is it?
He put the wood carving aside, picked up a copper coin from the bottom of the box, took a look, and found that it was a Guangxu ingots made in the south of the Yangtze River, smiled, and threw it into the coin pile.
This is a bamboo carved pen holder, no matter what the age, at a glance, at least a handmade product, which is worth a lot more than the one that Sparrow bought in Pingzhou at that time. This root carving seems to be good, but it is modern and old, and this one is not very good, none of these twenty or so pieces are red sandalwood or any other precious wood?
Twenty? Wu Di suddenly remembered something, he took the flashlight from the military advisor's hand and found it in the pile of copper coins just now. After a while, he picked up one, which was the Guangxu ingots he had just thrown in.
Carefully looked at the coiled dragon on the back, and then looked at the age of minting, he shook his head, this Jiachen Flying Dragon pattern almost leaked under his nose, it seems that this is really a moment of negligence!
At present, the copper coins and ingots of the Qing Dynasty are the main force of circulation in the numismatic market, and most of the prices range from a few yuan to thousands of yuan. And this Jiangnan-made Jiachen Feilong pattern coin is one of the outliers, because the number of surviving is extremely rare, the market price is as high as more than 150,000, and it is still priceless.
Wu Di didn't expect to see such a treasure here, so he threw it back as an ordinary ingot, but fortunately, the number of bamboo and wood carvings gave him a reminder, so that most of them would be missed by him.
"How much is this Guangxu ingot?"
The young man took it and gave it a casual look,
"Two thousand, this thing is almost the same price on the market."
Wu Di nodded, and moved the small bench to the side of the second box, this young man has a lot of good things, there are some ancient books and a dozen scrolls here, I don't know if I can find one or two more fine things worth selling.
The first ancient book surprised him a little, although it is not a famous treasure, but it is indeed an ancient book, it seems that this young man is really a little bit of a way.
This is a Qing Dynasty Guangxu period Wuchang Cheng produced the carved beauty longevity Xi word collection, the author is once done Zhang Zhidong Governor copywriter, and later participated in the creation of Hubei Province Chinese and Western Art School, and also managed the Hubei Provincial Bureau of Foreign Affairs School, in the teaching management, Western book translation and other aspects have contributed to Cheng Songwan's works, if the price is not high, but you can collect it.
Wu Di put this ancient book aside, picked up the second one, and when he saw it, he was taken aback, this was very much like a Song carved book! (To be continued.) )
