    When Shu Ze saw the inscription on the top one of the two coins, he couldn't help but froze, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Is this a huge amount of money spent by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom?!"

    The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom spent a lot of money not as circulating currency, nor as town treasury money, but as commemorative coins that were in the nature of furnace money or specially minted at that time.

    The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's Li Mingcheng's book to the British translator Fu Lici said, "Our country's holy money has now been spent on a large sum of one yuan, and I respectfully present it to my subordinates for fun as a token of friendship." According to this, it can be seen that such large sums of money  It is used for rewards or gifts and should be called "gift money".

    Most of the large coins of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom were found in Jinling. A total of four types have been discovered, namely special, large, medium and small, but the quantities are very rare.  For example, it is said that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's special large spender is collected in the Shonan History Museum, but only half of it is stored, and this half of the large spender weighs 2170 grams.

    Judging from the size, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom coin that Shu Ze mentioned should be a small coin.

    Shu Ze came to his senses and quickly asked Meng Zitao if he could get the money.

    ?????????????????????????????????????: "Two dragons grabbing beads" are surrounded by the front, and the "eight treasures" pattern was surrounded by the back.  The bead is surrounded by the rays of flames, not the rays of the sun.  The pattern between the tails of the two dragons is called "Shoushan Fuhai", but it is also called "Seawater facing the sky and Gui", both of which imply good luck.  The pattern around the back is "Eight Treasures", also known as "Eight Auspiciousness".

    ??Previously, the only Taiping Heavenly Kingdom trumpet that cost a lot of money was collected by the great collector Ma Dingxiang. It later appeared on the auction market and was sold for a high price.

    Now that such a precious coin was discovered, Shu Ze was surprised. Liandao was so lucky that he was able to discover such a precious ancient spring.

    Although there is definitely a difference between the one and only two, and it will affect the value to some extent, this kind of spending is quite rare, and even if it has little impact, it is estimated that the current value should be around one million.

    Meng Zitao smiled and put another copper coin in front of Shu Ze and said, "Look at this one again."

    Shu Ze took the coin with some curiosity, and immediately opened his mouth slightly: "It's actually Qixiang's treasure? And it's money from the town treasury!"

    "Qixiang", the era name of the late Qing Dynasty, is not far away from now, but many people probably have little impression of it.

    In the eleventh year of Xianfeng, that is, in 1861 AD, Emperor Xianfeng died of illness in Rehe. Eight ministers including Zaiyuan accepted the imperial edict to assist the government and changed the Yuan Dynasty to "Qixiang" to cast Qixiang Tongbao and Qixiang Chongbao.  Manchu Chronicle Bureau.  Tongbao is Xiaoping, and heavy treasure is Dangshi.

    However, a political coup soon occurred, and the three ministers Zaiyuan, Sushun and Duanhua were killed. Empress Dowager Cixi listened to the government behind the curtain and changed the reign name to "Tongzhi".

    "Qixiang" was changed to "Tongzhi" after one month, so the casting period of Qixiang money was less than one month, so the quantity was very small and rare, let alone the town treasury money.

    The so-called treasury money is used to suppress disasters and exorcise evil spirits, and to pray for good fortune and eternal wealth. When minting coins, the court often set up shrines in the treasury to worship the gods of wealth, warehouse owners, land, fire and other gods.  Above the incense table in the shrine, there is usually a special large coin hung with red silk on top and tassels on the bottom, which is called the town treasury coin.

    Zhenkuqian is a non-circulating coin with a very small mintage. It was carefully cast by craftsmen with very precise craftsmanship. It can be called a representative work of the advanced coinage technology at that time.

    The diameter of the town treasury coin like the one in front of me is about ten centimeters, while the diameter of the ordinary version is only 3.5 centimeters. It has the words "Qixiang Chongbao" on the face and "Daqing Town Treasury" on the back. The characters are as deep as engraved copper.  It is made of nine-melted copper and is precision cast. It has a very high collection value.

    Shu Ze carefully observed this treasury coin. The coin is simple and well-made. It is undoubtedly the same as the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom coin just now. It is undoubtedly authentic.

    After a moment, Shu Ze raised his head and admired: "This town treasury coin is quite precious and rare, and its appearance is quite perfect. It is an extremely beautiful product. In terms of the current market value, it is no more than three coins."  It¡¯s impossible to get a million dollars.¡±

    "Yes." Meng Zitao smiled and nodded. Such a precious ancient spring must be highly concerned and favored by the Quan family. Not only is it worth an astonishing amount now, it also has great potential for appreciation.

    The two discussed for a while. Shu Ze looked at the two coins in front of him and asked, "What are you going to do with these two coins?"

    "It depends on what you mean, today's luck will also be on your head." Meng Zitao said with a smile.

    "Come on." Shu Ze waved his hand: "I still have some self-awareness. If it weren't for your sharp eyesight, I wouldn't want this box at all."

    ¡°Then what you mean is that you want to give it all to me?¡± Meng Zitao asked with a smile.

    Shu Ze chuckled: "Of course it's impossible."??.

    The decoration of the store is relatively simple, but the furnishings are very reasonable. Some warning signs are added in some places that are easy to touch. In other places, there are also more thoughtful arrangements, which can also be seen from the owner's intentions.

    The items displayed in the store are basically all porcelain. They are placed in categories according to dynasties. Even the modern ones are marked, giving people a childlike feeling.

    After Shu Ze took his seat, he found that Mr. Jiang was the only one in the store and asked, "Why are you the only one in the store today?"

    Jiang Lao said: "I went to help Zhang Yan today and didn't plan to come back. It happened that Xiao Xu had something to do at home, so I gave him a day off. By the way, is everything going well with Lao Chen?"

    Shu Ze shook his head: "There was a bump at the bottom of that statue. I was giving it as a gift, so I didn't want it. In the end, Quilt Tao left." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
