Heavenly Treasure
The image in Shen Xu's mind ended there.
However, he was excited at this moment.
This copper coin covered in rust must be an old object.
However, not all copper coins were valuable.
As a type of ancient coin, its value mainly depended on four aspects.
Looking at the historical value, the precious ancient coins were the real objects of the history of the currency, and they were also the witnesses of history. Therefore, when collecting them, one had to be clear about their status in history. Generally speaking, the shorter the circulation time, the lower the circulation, and the higher the value.
Secondly, looking at the existing quantity, everyone understood the principle that the rarer an item was, the more valuable it was. The fewer the number of items in the world, the higher the value.
Thirdly, looking at the cultural value, some coins were handed down in large numbers, but because of their high cultural taste and artistic value, they were favored and became rare treasures in the collection world.
Fourth, look at the appearance. Collecting coins depended on their appearance, which was the degree of preservation. Whether the coin was rare or not, if the coin's surface was blurry, the outline was damaged, and the rust was serious, its value would be greatly reduced. Therefore, when collecting coins, one had to pay attention to how well the coins were preserved.
For example, copper coins like Qianlong Tongbao were issued for a long time at that time. They were cast in large quantities and had been passed down for a short period of time. Other than some mother coins, most of them were very low in value.
Although Shen Xu did not see what was written on the copper coin clearly just now,
However, according to the ancient costumes in his mind,
The upper body was a round-necked, narrow-sleeved, left-lapped robe with a leather belt around the waist. The lower body was pants and long black leather boots. The head was wrapped in a silk scarf. Some of the clothes were embroidered with patterns of eagles catching geese, and there were flowers around them. Some were embroidered with bears and deer in the mountains.
This was a typical costume of the Jin Kingdom!
However, it seemed to be different from the traditional clothing of the Jin Dynasty. It seemed to have the style of the clothing of the Song Dynasty at that time.
At this moment, Shen Xu was using the history books he had read before to speculate the specific age of the copper coin.
In 1115 AD, Wanyan Aguda proclaimed himself emperor, marking the establishment of the Jin Kingdom.
In the eighth year of Tianhui (1130), Zhao Gou of the Southern Song Dynasty surrendered to the Great Jin Emperor. From then on, the Southern Song Dynasty became a vassal state of the Jin Dynasty.
It was also from this time that the clothing of the Jin Kingdom was mixed with the style of the Song Dynasty clothing on the basis of the country and the Liao Kingdom.
And the ancient costumes in the video already had the characteristics of the Song Dynasty costumes.
Based on this, Shen Xu could determine that this copper coin should have been forged in the early days of the Jin Kingdom!
However, in the early days of the Jin Kingdom, the currency was used by the Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty. It was not until the second negotiation between the Jin and Song Dynasties and the end of the war that they issued their own currency.
Shen Xu felt a little puzzled when he thought of this. Could it be that his deduction was wrong?
No!
Shen Xu suddenly thought of a special emperor in the history of the Jin Kingdom.
The third emperor of the Jin Kingdom, Jin Xizong Wanyan Dan,
This emperor was also a tragedy. He had never truly grasped the emperor's full strength in his life.
However, Jin Xizong had studied orthodox Confucian culture since he was young. He had mastered a sub-set of Han classics and history, learned poetry, calligraphy, clothing, and so on. His living habits were no different from those of the Han people.
In the second year of Tianjuan, which was the fourth year after he ascended the throne, Jin Xizong carried out a system reform in the Jin Kingdom, known as the "New Deal of Tianjuan".
During this period, Emperor Xizong of the Jin Dynasty carried out the Han culture and system in all aspects. From etiquette, clothing, laws, ancestral temples, and so on, they all imitated the Song Dynasty.
At the same time, he also began to forge coins like the Song Dynasty!
That's right, the image was of Jin Xizong making coins when he was in power!
There were only three types of coins in the Tianjuan Era: Tianjuan Yuan Bao, Tianjuan Tong Bao, and Tianjuan Heavy Bao. However, no matter which type they were, they were all rare ancient coins!
Just as Shen Xu was secretly guessing the origin of the copper coin,
The middle-aged man seemed to be impatient and asked,
"Boss, which one do you like?"
Shen Xu was not in a hurry to answer him.
Instead, he rummaged through his bag, looking for the rusty copper coin that appeared in his mind.
Soon, Shen Xu saw the copper coin at the bottom of his backpack.
There was only one copper coin in the backpack, so Shen Xu was sure that it was the one he wanted.
Looking at the copper coin in the video, he said,
Shen Xu seemed to have thought of something and suddenly patted his head.
"I'm really stupid. I clearly have the system, but I don't know how to use it!”
Thinking of this, Shen Xu muttered in his mind,
"System, activate auxiliary x-ray vision!”
Perhaps it was because he had been traumatized by the auxiliary x-ray vision function in the hospital that he had forgotten that the system had such a function.
As soon as he finished speaking,
His eyes blurred.
Through the rust, he finally saw the words on the copper coin.
There were four words carved on it-Heavenly Treasure!
