Description

Ming Dynasty. Xi Zong 10 Cash ND (1621-1627) Certified 85 by Gong Bo Grading, Miyun mint (Chihli Province), Hartill-20.231. Tian Qi tong bao. 46.3x3mm. 33.8gm. An elusive 10 Cash minted in Chihli during the Ming Dynasty, presented here with moderate wear but very little environmental damage. The smooth, brassy high points show little to no encrustation and the recesses have developed a nice layer of darker patina. An excellent specimen of this scarce type.
