(t) CHINA. Yunnan Sanchuo Jieding. Provincial Three Stamp Remittance Ingots. Silver 5.5 Tael Bank Ingot, ND. Graded "EF 45" by Zhong Qian Ping Ji Grading Company. 重198.3克。 福兴佘记滙号纹银、公估商看讫、公估商看讫。保存颇佳，中央及外侧戳记深打，但不分明。中央戳记中心有天然空缺，导致若干字体模糊。验戳端正，铭文清晰。图文之间轻微积土，更添原始魅力。 cf. BMC-Class LXVI Group I # 944. Weight: 198.3 gms. "福興佘記滙號紋銀" (Fuxingshe Bank, remittance bank fine silver), "公估商看訖" (Checked by public assayer Shang), "公估商看訖" (Checked by public assayer Shang). This decently preserved ingot exhibits deeply applied central and outer stamps, though each is slightly muddled and the central stamp does have a natural void that obscures several characters. The assay stamps nicely centered with clear inscriptions. Minor earthen deposits amongst the devices lend to its originality and pleasing appearance.
