David Hartill's Qing Cash - Reference 17.120
Personal Analysis for Note/Interpretation:There is a HOOKED Hsien (Xian) Character IN ADDITION TO A Left Protruding Bao (宝) and Importantly, this is a Type 4 with a FOU BAO (and not an ER BAO)
Other Notes: Check with Hua Guangpu's Catalog to cross reference for variety (11/2/2024)
"Jiangsu Province was particularly affected during the Taiping rebellion and several branch mints were set up outside the main mint in Suzhou. A mint was set up in Zhun'an (now Qingjiang) and Dunxin. Two auxillary mints were set up to handle the demand, the first called "Emergency Preparations" (Choufang) and another called "Relief Preparations" (Chouji). All casting of large value coins ended in September 1855 in Jiangsu as they had fallen out of favor."

首先，我想感謝我的老外師傅留這枚給我！我要慢慢開始研究「咸豐大錢」然後慢慢搵啲美國藏家的舊藏！
