Qing Dynasty. 50 Cash, ND (ca. May-August 1854). The Prince Qing Hui Mint (Board of Revenue). Wen Zong (Xian Feng). Certified "Authentic" by Zhong Qian Ping Ji Grading Company.Hartill-22.716; FD-2429. Weight: 32.7 gms. Dot and crescent above Manchu script. "Xian Feng zhong bao"; Reverse: "Dang wushi". This relatively high grade example exhibits naturally rough surface texture and nicely formed calligraphy with plenty of evidence of the finishing process displaying attractive rich mottled brassy patina. The open fields display light pin scratches primarily isolated to two spots, one on the obverse and one on the reverse, done long ago now mostly subdued by the rich patination. The rims do exhibit minor casting blemishes that are hardly worth mentioning, but was done so for the sake or accuracy.
