Wang Chan played with the three mother money and said: "Mother money, in fact, the full name is carving mother money, also known as ancestral money, but it is just that the people in the industry slowly get used to it and see it referred to as mother money."

Song Yingxing's "Heavenly Works" in the Ming Dynasty recorded that [the four fire copper (refining four times) cast 'gold back money', and the two fire copper (refining twice) cast 'fire paint money'... Lead is cheap and copper is expensive, and the private caster is half of it, and the stone is like wood and stone, and this low money is also. If the money is high, the copper nine lead one, then the ground is made of gold. If you want to identify the mother money, you must understand the history of the production process of the mother money.

Now, the vast majority of the mother money that I know is gold-backed money, which is beyond doubt, so the four fire copper is the most typical feature. The three mother coins that Mr. Hai took out this time, counting, are indeed made of four-fire copper, listening to the sound, it is impossible to distinguish, and the copper they use is also the copper used in the copper coins of the Qing Dynasty, right? ”

Wang Chan roughly talked about the origin of these three mother money, and said that he would not be untargeted, and he wanted to distinguish the truth from the false, and he had to come up with evidence. Tell the material of the copper coin, this is a proof that you will not talk nonsense.

Haiquan nodded very happily and said: "Yes, many peers may not be able to see at first glance that the material of this copper coin is indeed remade with the copper of Kangxi Tongbao, this is like using the paper of the Ming Dynasty, the ink of the Ming Dynasty, and even the brush of the Ming Dynasty to make the ancient paintings of the Ming Dynasty, it is difficult for people to find out that this is a fake from the material." ”

Song Tianxing admires Wang Chan's eyesight very much at this moment, this kind of thing, anyway, he may not be able to see it when he sees dizziness, but Wang Chan casually listened to the voice, and after a glance, he knew what material the copper coin was made of.

Wang Chan said confidently: "Actually, there is a second method that few people know about to identify the authenticity of the mother money.

That is to say, go straight, a real mother money, especially the mother money of the ten grades, these are placed in the Forbidden City, naturally will not be used to make copper money, but to keep the file, then there will be one of the three iron laws of making mother money, the Qing Palace archives have records, the three iron laws are the first is to rather take the straight, do not ask for the song.

With this article, you can find a guarantee to find what the other beautiful sister copper coin fake is among the three copper coins. ”

After speaking, Wang Chan directly rolled the three copper coins on the table in turn, and it was very surprising that something happened, one of the copper coins always walked in a straight line, and the other two were not able to do this.

In such a situation, Wang Chan took out the copper coin that walked in a straight line with great certainty and said: "This one is real, and the remaining two are fakes." ”

Haiquan was very curious and said: "Mr. Wang, is it so sure that the copper coin you selected is genuine, not a fake, you must know that this is about one million, if you can't pass this level, then you have to pay at least one million more." ”

Wang Chan nodded, the confident light in his eyes flashed as bright as the stars, nodded and said: "I'm sure of this, I'd rather take it from the straight than from the song."

It is said that it is a rule when making the mother money, that is, the mother money, because it is to be regarded as a specimen, since the Sui and Tang dynasties, the method of abolishing the mother fan to cast money, and using the mother money to turn sand and cast, thus entering the stage of mother money turning sand and casting money.

Therefore, the requirements for the mother's money are even higher. Especially in the Qing Dynasty, the requirements were more stringent. It's a head-killing one. ”

When Song Tianxing heard this, he asked curiously: "Boss, a copper coin, isn't it, the person in charge of making the copper coin should be a talent that the emperor trusts very much, right?" ”

Wang Chan nodded at the head of the shop and said affirmatively: "Generally speaking, officials will not have problems, but it is difficult to say the craftsmen who make the mother money.

In the Qing Dynasty, especially in the early period of the Qing Dynasty, because they were ethnic minorities who entered the Central Plains, they were afraid that they would be said to be unorthodox, so they were the strictest in terms of requirements in all dynasties. For fear that there will be some accidents, they will be laughed at by the common people as barbarians. In the early Qing Dynasty, because of this dead craftsman, it was definitely not one or two. ”

Song Tianxing shrugged his shoulders and said that he didn't believe in such a thing, but he didn't say anything, because what Wang Chan said was not wrong, some practices in the early Manchu Qing Dynasty were indeed a bit extreme, such as ** or something, even in the late Qianlong period, they have been doing it, which shows that Emperor Qianlong's heart is weak.

Wang Chan continued: "Actually, if there are some small flaws in the mother coin, then the copper coins produced in the future will also have flaws.

Therefore, in such a situation, the first iron rule of the mother coin is that the edge of the mother coin must be very smooth, and there can be no flaws, so as to ensure that there will be no more flaws when making copper coins.

And this sleek standard is to hold the copper coin, roll on the smooth ground, and the mother money must go in a straight line, and it has always been a line, otherwise, it is a failure.

Therefore, the meaning of this take [rather to take straight in the middle, not to take in the middle] means that the production of mother money should be strictly required, and when making mother money, mistakes are allowed, and it is a big deal to do it again.

But as long as you make it out and distribute it as the mother money, then you have to go through this kind of Ning Xiang Zhizhong to obtain the test, if it is said that the mother money does not pass the test, then not only the craftsman will be killed, but the relevant responsible officials will also be implicated, and the head will not be cut off, and the fine or something is indispensable. ”

Wang Chan identified which of the mother's money was real and which two were fakes, and the head of the story was the Tao, which was indeed convincing. Even Song Tianxing, who doesn't know much about the antique industry, heard Wang Chan's words, and he also had a new understanding of Mu Qian.

Haiquan put away the three mother coins carefully, and then said happily: "Yes, Mr. Wang has obviously put a lot of effort into studying copper coins, otherwise, he would not know so much about these relatively remote histories." Congratulations, you have passed the second level. ”

Longzhong: Yes, such a test, Wang Chan has already passed two levels, and the rest is the last level.

If it is said that Wang Chan can pass the third level, the cost of one million will be saved.

Now, Song Tianxing is looking forward to Wang Chan being able to pass the third level, and he is now looking forward to what kind of treasure Haiquan came out of the third level.
