Description

The top ten treasures of modern Chinese mechanism coins have also been sought and excavated by people for thousands of years, and this is the Guangdong Province made Double Dragon Shou character coin. At present, it is known that Guangdong Province made Guangxu Yuanbao, with the four characters "Guangxu Yuanbao" in Manchu and Chinese characters cast inside the front bead circle. The four characters "Made in Guangdong Province" are engraved on the top of the bead circle, and the six characters "Seven Coins and Two Fens from Kuping" are engraved on the bottom. Bat patterns are carved on both sides. On the back, a circular "longevity" character is cast inside the bead circle, and a double dragon playing pearl pattern is cast outside the bead circle. Because the character "bat" in bats sounds the same as the character "fu" in happiness, the bat pattern is cast on the coin to create a homophonic sound between the characters "bat" and "fu". Corresponding to the character "longevity" on the back, it forms the meaning of "both happiness and longevity". This coin has a good appearance, clear font, regular shape, excellent texture, smooth handwriting, meticulous carving of patterns, and natural color. Whether it is text or pattern, it appears natural and delicate, with appropriate depth.
