清代吉林省大翼锭"光绪三十一年匠高明宽城同顺成"五十两地方税锭。极罕,东北大翅宝银锭。"匠高明"戳记位于翼上,锭面大角度倾斜,值得特别留心。戳记深峻,几乎完好,仅小块次要部分缺失。上缘有细微铸造失误。深色包浆,凹槽少许积土。五十两银锭中如此品相者实属罕见,定会引发爱锭藏家的激烈竞投。
CHINA. Jilin Dachibao. Jilin Province Big Winged Ingots. Silver 50 Tael Local Tax Ingot, Year 31 (1905). Guang Xu. VERY FINE。1894.21 gms. Guo-542(six pieces cited); Pictoral Yuanbao-1162/63(two pieces cited); Chen-910/11(two pieces cited); BMC-Class II(five pieces cited). VERY RARE and the first example we can recall handling. Top center stamp "Jiang Gao Ming" (Smith Gao Ming), right side stamp "Kuan Cheng Tong Shun Cheng" and left side stamp "Guang Xu San Shi Yi Nian" (Guangxu Period 31st year). Interesting to note that the stamp for Smith Gao Ming appears on High wings, with the face at an incredible slant. Stamps well applied and nearly complete missing only minor insignificant portions. Some casting imperfections notable at the top edge due to the manufacturing. Deeply tone with minor earthen deposits in the recesses. These qualities lead to an interesting piece far less encountered than other 50 Taels of similar manufacture certain to see spirited bidding from the serious collector。
