<p>[QUOTE="AnYangMan, post: 2850501, member: 87271"]A big thank you for the warm welcomes again! [USER=75799]@Loong Siew[/USER], over the last couple of months, I’ve read a fair few of your topics, and admired your amazing and historical coins. I am especially fond of that Da Chao silver cash. I mean, wow, how rare is this type! And this has to be one of the best preserved specimens I have ever seen. I am sure you are familiar with them, but there have been a few publications on this type the past couple of years, by a Russian numismat who has studied this type intensely for the past few years. A classification has been attempted, with special focus on the reverse countermarks, which are present on virtually all Da Chao Tong Bao, in differing numbers (most have just one, while specimens with 6 countermarks are also known!). I am not quite sure what the two on your coin classify as, but they are interesting to say the least. The rest of the coins you posted are more than awesome as well![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
