公元三至七世纪龟兹(即现今新疆库车县)五銖钱一对，龟兹為古代西域诸侯国之一，汉朝时期隶属於西域都护府，因此龟兹钱币亦深受汉代流通的五銖钱的影响，其中一面有篆书「五銖」之字样，另一面為龟兹语「五銖」，因此本品是融汇汉文及龟兹文双语之铜币，於东汉末年到隋末期间流通，F至G品相，其中一枚有裂，罕见，定必广受资深藏家青睞，布威纳博士旧藏。Qiuzi (Kucha), a pair of Wuzhu cash coins from Qiuzi (modern day Kucha County of Xinjiang), circa 3rd to 7th century AD, Qiuzi was one of the states of the ancient Western Region and under the jurisdiction of the Xiyu Duhufu of the Han Dynasty. As a result, the cash coins were also heavily influenced by the Wuzhu coins in circulation in the Han Dynasty, but with the Chinese characters Wuzhu in seal script struck on one side and the equivilant of it in Qiuzi s own language on reverse, thus such coins are referred to as Han-Qiuzi bilingual cash . They are believed to be in circulation from late Eastern Han Dynasty till the end of Sui Dynasty. Fine to Good condition, with one showing a crack. An attractive addition to any discerning collector of ancient Chinese coins!(2) Dr. Werner Burger Collection
