Chapter 1213 Ancient Coins
"Yes, this Yuan Shikai riding a horse looks like a coin. Although it is a fabricated coin, it is a top-notch quality in both workmanship and material selection. Therefore, its value is pretty good. It is estimated that it should be sold at 100,000 to 150,000." After a brief observation, Zhang Wanquan raised his head and looked at everyone and said.
Upon hearing this, Liao Chenru's heart moved. He just felt that this silver coin was not simple, and it seemed particularly eye-catching among the pile of coins, but he didn't expect it to be so valuable.
"Old Zhang, where is the silver coin chosen by Xiao Liao among those silver coins?" Wang Zhonghe asked hurriedly.
"To be honest, I bought this pile of coins in packages, including treasures and fakes. Because I was too busy recently, I didn't have time to take a closer look. It's hard to say where the silver coin chosen by Chen Ru is, but I initially estimate that it is at least at the upper and middle level." Zhang Wanquan replied with a smile.
As he said, he turned around and glanced at Liao Chenru, his expression full of appreciation.
There are hundreds of coins, and the quality is mixed. In just a few minutes, the other party can actually choose such a valuable thing, and his eyesight is indeed good.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly continued: "I am really worthy of being Mr. Wang's grandson. At a young age, he actually has such eyesight. He will definitely become a great person in the future."
"Old Zhang, you are acclaimed. In fact, I just happened to meet you. To put it bluntly, I was confused." Liao Chenru waved his hand repeatedly and said modestly.
But although he said so, his face couldn't hide his joy.
He knew Zhang Wanquan's status very well, it was much higher than his grandfather. It was not easy to get praise from the other party and in front of so many people.
After a moment of pondering, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Su Tie, and smiled and said, "If you really want to be a great person, it depends on our Mr. Su. His eyesight is better than everyone present."
"Haha, I hope his crawling ability is better than everyone present." Before Zhang Wanquan could speak, the old man wearing a black training suit smiled disdainfully.
As soon as he said this, the collectors in the living room burst into laughter.
However, Wu Wei's face had turned extremely blue at this moment. He snorted and said loudly: "Old Cao, you are a senior, you are a little too petty, so humiliating your juniors?"
"Haha, I'm speaking for everyone. If he doesn't accept it, he will defeat me." The old man in the black practice uniform said disdainfully.
"Then I want to see what kind of guy you chose, Mr. Cao." Wu Wei snorted, then stood up and stepped forward.
The old man in the black practice uniform was not angry, but just snorted lightly, then threw the selected coins on the coffee table next to him, and said lightly: "Then please let Mr. Wu come and take a look."
Wu Wei ignored it, but went straight forward, held the coin in his hand, and looked at it.
I saw that it was a round hole coin with a uniform layer of rust attached to it, and the surface was filled with the four words "Xianfeng Chongbao".
Seeing this situation, Wu Wei snorted disdainfully and sneered: "I thought Mr. Cao, you have good eyesight. Isn't it just a treasure of Xianfeng? Even if it is real, it is worth three to five thousand, which is worth it?"
"Look carefully." The old man in the black training uniform chuckled and shook his head.
"If you look carefully, it is not worth it. The circulation of this thing is too large, and it can be said that it is everywhere." Wu Wei shook his head and said.
But even though he said so, he still held the coin in his hand again and looked carefully.
I saw that he was impatient at first, and soon showed a look of surprise on his face. It was not until a moment later that he was surprised and said: "This...this is..."
"This is the Daishu version of Xianfeng Chongbaoquan Dianwu trial casting sample, with a market price of at least 350,000 yuan." The old man in the black training suit waved his hand and interrupted Wu Wei's words and said coldly.
Hearing his words, Wang Zhonghe, who was sitting beside him, looked confused and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "What is the Daishu version of Xianfeng Chongbao Quandai Five Trial Sample Coins? Is there any difference between the ordinary Xianfeng Chongbao?"
"Baoquan is a mint in the Qing Dynasty. Dangwu refers to its denomination, which roughly means equivalent to five small flat coins. The sample coin means that it is not approved for mass production. In other words, it means that there is no formal issuance and circulation of coins. As for the Daishu version, it refers to the words on this coin, which are written by the Qing Dynasty painter Dai Xi." Liao Chenru hurriedly introduced in a low voice.
"Then why is this coin valuable than the ordinary Xianfeng treasure?" Wang Zhonghe asked.
Liao Chenru smiled and continued to explain: "During the Xianfeng period, internal and external troubles, many mints were difficult to operate normally. Even if they were cast, they cut corners, so there were very few fine products for Xianfeng money. Among them, Baoquan Bureau had a smaller amount of 5-casting, and the sample amount was not large, so naturally, the rare thing was expensive."
"During the Xianfeng period, the morgue occupied the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, so that the copper mines in the southwest could not be transported to the capital. At that time, internal and external troubles were in trouble. In order to solve the financial crisis, the Qing government began to mint big coins, but because the profits of mints made too little profits, many mints did not start minting. Therefore, among Xianfeng coins, mints were extremely rare." Zhang Wanquan added with a smile.
As he said, he glanced Liao Chenru again and said with love: "Young man, I didn't realize that you have such achievements in coins, and you are actually very good at speaking."
"Old Zhang has been awarded too much, I just happened to know, it's not a good achievement." Liao Chenru responded with a smile.
"Old Zhang, come and see, how about my coin?"
"Old Zhang, and mine..."
At this moment, the other collectors couldn't help but try it. They were just thinking of competing with Su Tie, but after Liao Chenru and the old Cao, they now wanted to show their faces in front of Zhang Wanquan and show their eyesight to each other.
Zhang Wanquan didn't care too much, but hurried forward and looked at them one by one.
"No, not bad. Although this Warring States Bridge Football Cloth looks a bit bad, its value is pretty good."
"There is also this city white knife coin, which is quite well preserved, and can be called a fine product and has a high collection value."
"Xiao Li, you..."
Zhang Wanquan was evaluating the coins chosen by everyone and quoting the price. Although few of them could surpass Liao Chenru and the old Cao, they were at least more than 100,000 yuan.
Seeing this situation, Wu Wei was already extremely anxious.
He just glanced at the pile of coins a few times. Although there were indeed genuine products, there were only a few items that could be sold at the price, especially if it exceeded 100,000, which was even more difficult.
Under such circumstances, it is too difficult for Cycad to beat these people.
"Old Zhang, you have been walking around. It should be our turn, Mr. Su, right?" At this moment, Liao Chenru spoke.
