<p>[QUOTE=&quot;weifin, post: 740865, member: 20003&quot;]So the &quot;chop mark&quot; should reflect someone who attested to the authenticity of the piece and so the mark should be well known! So if it is not well known then it should be a fantasy chop--as you mentioned--and thus added later or outside the range of chop marks for authenticity, right? Could there be local chop marks which are still unknown as such? But perhaps were recongnized as such at the time? (Except for this case of &quot;ta&quot; which wasn&#039;t in use till later? Or perhaps this is a case of an early &quot;original&quot; use of it? Not likely, huh?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
