WELCOME! This page offers less expensive Chinese cash, including "types" and varieties by calligraphy, or extra marks. Since the Tang dynasty, with its dots and crescents, and variable writings of the four characters, Chinese officials have coded important information about the coin's origin or purpose. Sometimes we know the meaning, usually not. Many collectors find it fascinating, and easy on the budget, to collect varieties of $2-$10 coins rather than buy expensive reigns or large coins. It's important to learn a few basic facts about Chinese calligraphy and develop a sharp eye for comparing small details. More about variety collecting and my abbreviated descriptions here. ABOUT THE OFFERS . . . Click on the PHOTO thumbnail to see the coin. "NO PHOTO" means just that, too inexpensive to do photos. (more . . .). H# is from David Hartill's Cast Chinese Coins but I have used letter supplements for varieties he does not show. (more references). My DESCRIPTIONs may focus on different details than that work. (more on varieties . . .). GRADE shown is my own. Compare some photos to my assigned grades to see if you agree with my standards. (more . . .). I have not listed the provenance (former owner) for each coin, but I may be able to tell this from the envelope - please ask. ORDER Everything should be in stock but occasionally I forget to remove a sold coin. You pay only the true USPS postal rates, no extra handling charges. I take most forms of payment including Visa / MC and [Paypal add 1% USA, 2% non-USA]. To order, tell me H#, and PRICE, OR copy and paste the entire line for each item into an email. Please erase the unwanted part if more than one coin is offered in a line. I will send an invoice same or next business day. No reply? Try THIS. Or see ORDERING INFO for more details. Order by phone: 425-369-1725 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM USA Pacific. Most of the important coins offered have been seen by at least one knowledgeable authenticator. All coins are guaranteed genuine and can be returned at any time if proven otherwise. (details . . .). Please return unwanted coins in one week, or let me know if you need more time for study. No discount now, even for large orders, but later I will discount unsold items. ANOTHER PAGE: RARE CASH COINS |

| OTHER EARLY MONEY FORMS ca. 400 - 220 BC | |||||
| The I pi, ant nose, or imitation cowrie monies of Chu State were used from the 8th-3rd c. BC, thus contemporary with the oldest knife and spade monies. Apparently they were controversial in Schjoth's day as he did not include them in his coinage section. Halberd money, also known as Ko money, Ge, or Je, is a small, fragile imitation of a weapon combining an ax with a spear, used in Wu State during Spring & Autumn Annal (c.526-476 BC). Although only recently discovered, they are widely accepted by Chinese archaeologists as money due to an apparent size/denominational structure, and where they are placed in burials. Bridge Money have now been dated to c. 306-221BC and are accepted by many - but not all - Chinese numismatists as actual coins of Ba and Shu States. | |||||
