Chapter 329 Cloth Coins

If Han Peacock collects them by himself, he doesn't know that he will only be able to collect some in the year of the monkey, and the greatest possibility is that he will encounter many fakes and make himself angry in vain.

Although Han Peacock was very interested in all copper coins, he did not actually collect them because Han Peacock knew that it was very difficult to collect complete sets of cloth coins.

When the cashier heard Han Kongque say that there were too few cloth coins and he couldn't exchange them, instead of feeling depressed, he became even more excited.

"Don't worry, I know you are using it for collection in the museum. The quantity is small, and it won't have much impact even if it is placed in the museum. So, as long as you have enough good things, I will have cloth coins of sufficient value in my hand."

Qiangui said confidently.

Han Kongque said: "Why don't you first tell me what kind of cloth coins you have?"

"There are both empty-headed cloths and flat-headed cloths. For example, the flat-shouldered and curved-footed empty-headed cloths are available in three types: large, medium, and small, oblique-shouldered and curved-footed empty-headed cloths, pointed-footed empty-headed cloths, etc., as well as the pointed ones among the flat-headed cloths.

Foot cloth, quasi-square foot cloth, quasi-round foot cloth, bridge foot cloth, square foot cloth, acute angle cloth, round foot cloth, three-hole cloth, long cloth, etc.

You must know that there are many types of cloth coins, and they can definitely form a large category comparable to the sword coins of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period." Qiangui looked at Han Peacock confidently, he really didn't believe that Han Peacock was not tempted.

Han Kongque was indeed tempted. Although there were several precious coins in his hand, the number was too small, such as bamboo coins, Wubei Shao, and Xingtong Bao. Although their values ​​were not low, they were just the same.

If placed in a museum, it would not be eye-catching at all. On the contrary, the cloth coins, which are not very valuable, are more eye-catching and more difficult to collect.

Seeing Han Kongque's hesitation, Qiangui immediately said: "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you suffer. I will definitely get everything for you, such as the "Jinyang Half" pointed foot cloth in the Warring States Period and the "Dayin" pointed foot cloth in the Warring States Period.

Cloth, Warring States "Linban" pointed foot cloth, Pre-Qin "Jinyang half" pointed foot cloth, "Pingzhou" pointed foot cloth, "Zshiban" pointed foot cloth, San Jin square footed small cloth, large pointed footed cloth, etc.

, I have them all.

If you can pay enough, I can even get you a complete set of Big Pointe Cloths. The Big Pointe Cloths include "Gandan", "Dayin", "Zishi", "Jinyang" and "Xieshan"

, "Lin", "Yuji", "Lulu" and "Yangqu", a total of nine types. Although the types are less than the small pointed foot cloth, it is still very troublesome to collect.

If you didn’t have some good things in your hands, it would be impossible to exchange these treasures with you. There are not many such opportunities."

Han Peacock thought quickly about the price of cloth coins. He calculated how many cloth coins he could exchange for. If he exchanged for less, it would be meaningless.

I remember the Korean peacock with flat head and pointed feet, which was in good condition in the early 1980s. The average price of a single piece was 4-10 yuan.

In the early 1990s, the average price per coin was 20-35 yuan, and in the late 1990s, the price per coin rose to 70-150 yuan.

From 2002 to 2008, the average price per piece rose to around 400 yuan, and now the average price has stabilized at around 500-600 yuan.

However, those in good condition are still the targets of collectors. Some versions, such as the "Warring States Linzi Half Cloth Coin" mentioned by the cashier just now, are priced at 400 yuan, but when they are actually traded, the price will definitely exceed 2,000 yuan.

.

Another example is the even rarer "Li Shi" pointed-footed cloth. Although the market price is between 3,500 and 600 yuan, if it can be preserved without warping or cracking, the price of "Lishi" pointed-footed cloth will definitely be higher than Over ten thousand.

This is mainly because the copper material used in the pointed foot cloth contains too much lead, lacks elasticity, has poor force-bearing ability, and the coin body is light and thin, so it is difficult to preserve. If you encounter a well-preserved one, some people will accept it if the price is higher. .

Therefore, if Han Kongque wanted to exchange for some cloth coins of good quality and large quantity, the coins he took out must be of sufficient value.

The money cabinet still felt that the stimulation for Han Peacock was not enough, so he directly took out a mobile phone, turned it on, and played pictures one by one for Han Peacock to see.

Looking at the ancient coins that were green and shovel-like, Han Peacock was moved.

This is a currency that evolved from agricultural tools. By the Warring States Period, three major systems were formed: cloth currency, knife currency, and ring currency.

At first glance, "cloth coin" sounds like it is made of cloth, but in fact it is also a kind of metal currency.

In ancient times, there was a farm tool called 镈, and the shape of the cloth coin was very similar to 镈. Since "镈" and "cloth" have the same pronunciation, people called this kind of 鈥氪-like coin "cloth coin".

"How's it going? I trust you and that's why I took so many photos for you to see. I don't think you'll let me down, right?" Qian said.

At this time, the eyes of Ji Shuping, Wang Cheng, Shi Lei, and Sun Ningquan were all focused on Han Kongque.

Han Kongque said: "I really don't have much in my hands, but it's totally fine to give you some cloth coins."

The cashier's eyes lit up and he said, "How much do you think you can exchange for?"

"If you use the ones on your mobile phone to exchange for a few thousand, it shouldn't be a problem." Han Peacock was also very confident.

If calculated based on five hundred yuan of ordinary cloth coins, he can exchange one bamboo coin for at least one thousand. This is calculated based on the lowest value. If the profit of bamboo coins increases by 100%, he can exchange for two thousand ordinary cloth coins. currency.

And some rare cloth coins only cost one or two thousand yuan. Even if the cashier has such cloth coins, he won't be able to exchange them with him in large quantities, so he can use some Shunzhi Tongbao or Shaoxing Tongbao. Change it to twenty or thirty coins.

After this calculation, Han Kongque had no intention of taking out the most valuable Wubei Shao and Xingtong Bao.

"Wait a moment." Han Peacock stood up and went into the basement.

When Han Kongque came out, he was already carrying a backpack, which was bulging and seemed to contain a lot of things.

Han Peacock put the backpack on the table and saw Liu Xu looking at it curiously. Han Peacock smiled and said: "I bought it from this brother's stall yesterday afternoon. I'm lucky. There are some Shaoxing Tongbao Xiaoping coins in it. There are also some that are discounted by 20% or 50% off. You should be able to exchange these for some cloth coins of one or two thousand yuan."

Han Peacock pushed his backpack next to Liuxu, letting Liuxu and Liuye look at it freely.

Shi Lei breathed a sigh of relief. Although what Han Kongque said was worth some money, it was usually only three to five hundred yuan. Thinking about it, Xing Tong Bao wouldn't be too much in Shao like this.

Even so, Shi Lei still regretted it very much. If he had appraised this batch of Song Dynasty money earlier and checked the information, there would be no mistake this time.

But I thought that after all, I sold it for 75,000 yuan, so I didn’t lose too much. So I felt a little more at ease.

At this time, Wang Cheng was also very nervous. He also saw his pamphlet. The pamphlet was now in the cashier's hand, which made Wang Cheng's hands sweat.

At this time, Qian's face was also full of doubts. Last time he paid 40,000 yuan to buy the Shunzhi Tongbao in this booklet. Obviously Han Peacock was unwilling to sell it. But today he looked at the Shunzhi Tongbao in this booklet. However,

Didn't find anything special.

Although these Shunzhi Tongbao are considered fine products, their value is only about 25,000 yuan at most, and Han Kongque bought them for 30,000 yuan. At that time, he increased the price by 10,000 yuan, but Han Peacock didn't sell them, so the situation was wrong.

Han Kongque must have hidden the good things in the cash box, so his expression was a bit ugly.

Wang Cheng was always paying attention to the money cabinet. When he saw that the money cabinet looked wrong, he immediately said: "Uncle Qian, what's wrong?"

"You sold this to Xiao Han, take a look." There wasn't much in the cash box, so he gave the brochure directly to Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng has often thought about this booklet recently, so after selling it, he remembered some of the Shunzhi Tongbao in it more clearly.

Moreover, he has been working hard recently to check all the Shunzhi Tongbao. Now he can recognize all the Shunzhi Tongbao that are of some value.

The ones in the front were worthless, and the ones in the back were fine. Finally, he thought carefully: "One is missing."

As expected, the cashier looked at Han Peacock: "Xiao Han, take out all your things and show them to me! Even if you don't plan to exchange them, let's communicate!"

Han Peacock smiled: "The best is here, you didn't get it just now."

As he said that, Han Peacock pushed the bamboo coins that the catkins and willow leaves had seen and pushed them down in front of the cash box.

"Is this the missing coin in this book? Wang Cheng, you kid is not blind enough to mix this bamboo coin into Shunzhi Tongbao and sell it, right?" Qiangui said, looking at the brand new bamboo coin.

Wang Cheng saw Sun Ningquan, Fat Liu and others looking at him with pitiful eyes, and he hurriedly said: "Can I recognize this bamboo coin? What is missing in this booklet is not a silver coin, but a slightly larger Shunzhi Tongbao?"

"

"A slightly bigger one? Is it the carved mother coin?" Qiangui looked at Han Peacock and said.

Han Kongque said: "You have really matured with age. It is a carved mother coin, but it is just a Shunzhi Tongbao regular script folded two-backed 'original' carved mother coin for the workers to use as a mold."

"Shunzhi Tongbao regular script folded two-back 'original' carved mother coin?" Qiangui didn't believe it. Such carved mother coins were not uncommon, and he had several in his hand.

Wang Chengdao: "Yes, what is missing in this booklet is a Shunzhi Tongbao regular script folded with two backs 'original'. I didn't expect it to be a carved mother's coin. Brother Han, we are friends, you don't have to trick me like this, right?"

Han Kongque said: "It's not my fault. I didn't notice it at the time. It was my little sister who discovered it later. She noticed that the 2-cent coin was bigger than the other coins, so I discovered it."

The cashier didn't believe it at all, so he said directly: "No wonder you didn't sell it when I added ten thousand. It turns out that I paid a little less."

Han Kongque smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Qian, you don't have to say that, right? That mother-of-pearl coin is only worth twenty thousand."

"That's right. You don't think much of something worth 20,000 yuan now. Why don't you take it out and let's exchange it!" said the cashier.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Han Kongque said: "No, I gave you my future nephew."

Several people were speechless.

The cashier knew that Han Kongque couldn't lie to him, so he didn't say anything more. Anyway, he already had a few of the carved mother coins, so it didn't matter even if he couldn't exchange them for them. If he came here today, as long as he could exchange them for the bamboo coins, it would be fine.

It's a worthwhile trip.

The cashier checked the Song Dynasty coins bought from Shi Lei again. These Song Dynasty coins were all special coins, such as 20% off, 50% off, etc., because they were well preserved. Each of these Shaoxing Tongbao coins could be used

In exchange for a cloth coin.

And some special ones can of course be exchanged for some rare cloth coins.

Just a little calculation. Han Peacock can definitely exchange for nearly 3,000 cloth coins. Although they are not too precious, these cloth coins would be spectacular if they were placed in a museum.

Liu Ye listened carefully to the money cabinet calculating the value of the copper coins. After a while, tens of thousands of dollars came out, but no matter how much he calculated, he could not get back the original value.

So at this time, not only Qiangui had doubts, but also Liuxu Liuzhi, Fat Liu and others.

At this time, Shi Lei also knew something. He thought of the legend of Han Peacock. Could such a person really be deceived by him?

No matter how he thought about it, Shi Lei knew it was impossible. He thought about the information he had just checked, and felt even more uncomfortable.

Seeing Han Kongque drinking tea like a normal person, Shi Lei finally said: "Brother Han, I wonder where the Shao Xing Tong Bao with the black back is? Why didn't I see it here?"

"The back is black? Shao Xing Tong Bao? Are you sure it's Shao Xing Tong Bao?" Qiangui asked immediately.

Shi Lei's face became very embarrassed. Because at this time, the cashier had specially picked out the iron coins from his batch of money and carefully received them on the other side. You didn't need to look at them to know that the cashier attached great importance to these iron coins.

Shi Lei felt filled with regret at this time. Why was he so lazy?

If he is a little more diligent and serious, he will know that iron money can sometimes be very valuable, and iron money can also be cast under the emperor's order.

Thinking of the private coin that he thought was iron money, his heart ached even more.

Wubei Shaoxing Tongbao! This is a truly treasured ancient coin. One coin can be exchanged for a house in the magical city!

Shi Lei didn't say anything, and Han Kongque didn't mean to say anything. Since the coins he took out could be exchanged for enough cloth coins, it would be better to stay out of the limelight, otherwise, this guy named Shi Lei would want to kill people.

The cashier looked at Shi Lei, who had an ugly face, and said: "Shi Lei can be considered an old man in the antique shop. He didn't hang out on our street before. He was a baggage dealer. Now he plans to enter the industry and set up a stall on the antique street. Xiao Han

He entered the industry earlier than Shi Lei, so we should take more care of him in the future!"

Han Kongque said with a smile: "Why don't you know Brother Shi? It turns out that he came from other markets. Even if we know each other in the future, if you have good things, just send them to me directly. As long as the things are genuine, I will definitely give them to you."

You have a good price."

"It's really hypocritical. Why are you talking about this? Let's talk about Wubei Shao and Xing Tongbao. We are very interested in that." Liu Ye was originally curious to know what was going on, but they actually didn't mention it.

Liu Ye was very dissatisfied.

At this time, Shi Lei was clicked by the cashier, and Shi Lei also realized that Sun Ningquan was a living example. He also lost his treasure in the hands of Han Kongque, but now he is also prospering.

And since he has lost the treasure, it is useless to be sad now. He might as well take this opportunity to have a relationship with Han Kongque.

You must know that Han Kongque is the big benefactor in the hearts of these small vendors now. A collector who can build a private museum by himself must be a big collector. As long as you get in touch with him, and you have good things in your hands in the future, you will definitely

Don't worry about selling.

Shi Lei figured it out and stopped worrying about it, so he said directly: "I received this batch of copper coins in Sichuan Province. It was a construction site and they found a large amount of copper coins from a cellar.

What I received was the leftovers picked up by others, so I didn’t pay too much attention to it. At that time, I received it at a price of 100 yuan per catty.

Yesterday afternoon I resold it for 2,500 yuan per catty. I felt like I made a small fortune, but now I realize that I am the stick."

Qiangui said: "Just remember the lesson. In our antique shop, no one can miss something, and no one can miss the treasure. So as long as you remember the lesson this time, it will be the biggest gain."

Shi Lei said: "I know, after this lesson, I naturally don't dare to be careless. I think the one that Brother Han threw into the pile of money at that time should be a black-backed Shao, Xingtong treasure, right?

"

Seeing that although Shi Lei's eyes were a bit wretched, he was still quite generous, so Han Kongque no longer concealed it. He directly touched in his pocket and took out a large bare-backed coin.

"It's really Wubei Shao, Xing Tongbao, what kind of luck do you have?" Qiangui's beard was bristling, and he didn't know whether he was angry or anxious.

Although he stays on the antique street every day, he cannot encounter the newly launched stalls at the first time, otherwise it is impossible for Han Peacock to pick up such a big leak.

Fatty Liu said: "At first I thought it was luck, but luck is only a part of strength, so now I can only look up to you. With your strength, whoever meets you will be unlucky!"

Wang Cheng and Sun Ning all felt the same and nodded at the same time.

Shi Lei almost shed tears. Among these people, he was the most unlucky, while Ji Shuping just looked on with a smile. He had never lost a treasure in Han Peacock's hands.

Even Fat Liu was robbed of thousands of dollars by Han Peacock.

Several people had different thoughts, but at this time they had to turn their bitterness into motivation, all focusing on the copper coin worth one million.

The cashier took out a pair of tweezers from somewhere, carefully picked up the coin, looked at it carefully, and then put the coin down after he breathed a sigh of relief.

There are only six records of this thing being unearthed in China. It can be said that it is not much more than the Daqi Tongbao. Therefore, this thing is a real rare treasure.

Although the Qian family has been collecting ancient coins for a long time, there is really no such ancient coin, so the money chest does not want to let go of this Wu-backed Shaoxing Tongbao.

He was also regretting it at this time. If he had known that Han Kongque had such rare ancient coins, he would have exchanged the cloth coins for them.

Now those cloth coins that Han Peacock was very satisfied with were only exchanged for one bamboo coin, which made the cashier feel very regretful.

He knew that there were not many things that could arouse Han Peacock's interest. People like Han Peacock were definitely not interested in ordinary things. No matter how good they were, he would not exchange them with what he had in hand.
