拍品描述： Group Lots - China，WARRING STATES: Ba & Shu States, LOT of 10 AE bridge money, 300-225 BC, Opitz p.352 (plate examples), measuring between 140mm and 67mm across, including a rare type with rounded ends (one end broken, reattached with tape), most plain, with a few decorated with simple line-drawn patterns, all with some degree of encrustation, some with small casting holes, three with adhesive residue on the back; retail value $800, lot of 10 pieces. Though colloquially known as "bridge money", these bronze pieces are formally known only as funerary objects designed to imitate the stone chimes of the bianqing. Bridge Money pieces have now been dated to circa 306-221 BC and are accepted by many - but not all - Chinese numismatists as actual coins of Ba and Shu States during the Warring States period.
