This handsome and decently preserved large size ingot displays lovely rich old cabinet patina with boldly applied stamps, though the top curved stamp is slightly cockeyed with a bit of weakness in the center. The surfaces exhibits moderate signs of handling as would be expected from the state of preservation with minor bumps with a chop Yi. The tips of the wings are a bit wavy, as is a common occurrence on these large format sycee, mentioned purely for accuracy. Despite its shortcomings, this attractive survivor offers a pleasing appearance with good eye appeal that is deserving of further in depth research from the specialist.<em>The addition of the two characters, Ren and Ji, above the main inscription of the bank name is an unusual characteristic for this type. Usually when examples of the Shanghai Erqibao series are encountered they only have the bank name in the upper stamp with additional stamps to denote the silversmith, furnace or other official markings. </em>
