<p>[QUOTE="jcm, post: 3219925, member: 72567"]Eastern Han wuzhu. The shape of the wu is distinctive. The hole bein rotated is from when the hole was punched out to remove the overflow in the mold. These molds couldnt be rotated, they were two part molds carved from slate which had alignment pegs in them. Some molds survive from this period. Hartill doesn't list this variety but Du Weishan shows several with the sharp corner wu in Wu Zhu Tu Lao.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
