Description

Qing Dynasty. Wen Zong (Xian Feng) 1000 Cash ND (May-August 1854) Certified 90 by Gong Bo Grading, Prince Qing Hui mint, Hartill-22.721, FD-2436, 62.6mm. 76.1gm. Variety with "sun and moon" marks on reverse. An intriguing representative whose preservation seemingly knows no equal with those brought to market in recent decades. This scarce 4-month emission was produced to pay the local army, with this particular example offering decidedly crisp features in high relief, potentially to the level of the coveted "Mother" issues that we've handled with increasing frequency. A thoroughly pleasing example of a coveted and fleeting issue sure to pique the interest of the Cash specialist.

1854年清代咸豐元寶當千星月。公博評級美90。
慶惠王鑄。62.6毫米。76.1克。背面帶有星月紋。這枚耐人尋味的銅幣呈現出無可比擬的保存狀態，品相遠超數十年來市場上的例子。此幣發行僅有四個月，以用付支付地方軍餉。其線條格外俐落分明，高聳立體的圖文可與敝年近年愈加頻繁經手的「母錢」相媲美。這枚賞心悅目的例子有如鳳毛麟角，發行時間極為短暫，定必會引來銅錢收藏家的密切注視。
