    H 18 . 21      LIAO: Qian Tong yuan bao     Cash Two specimens with identical? calligraphy. I am suspicious of #2 because Tong tilts with the rosette center rim while the other characters do not. What does this mean? Other than this, the two pieces are more similar than their images indicate because #2 has been cleaned (except the edge) and is less worn. The interior metal color is comparable as are shape and patination of edges. The pimpling on #2 can be laid to very little wear; note the flattened (worn) pimples on rev. of #1.     #1: 23.4mm, 3.561g; #2 23.7mm, 3.852g FD1629, S1073, HG826/2; Offering #1:     VF
