WORLD COINS, CHINA Empire. Warring States. ½-Jin “Bridge Crotch Spade Money” (An-Yi-Ban-Jin), 476-221 BC. Inscription reads from the top of right column to the bottom, then from right column to left column, just like other traditional Chinese texts. Sharp very fine, holed on the hilt, even dark green patina on both sides, no corrosion or other damage. These spade coins were minted during a special period in Chinese history called the “Warring States” when the country was separated into several kingdoms The shape of the coins is believed to be an abstract design based on farming tools. This coin was a legal tender issued by the Kingdom of Wei, which was the most powerful kingdom at the beginning of the Warring States period. Three different denominations were issued, 2-Jin, 1-Jin and ½-Jin. Compared to the other two denominations, the ½-Jin coins are typically rarer and harder to locate in high grades. The hole on the hilt is probably not as made, but very commonly seen for the denomination, just like the holes on Spanish Royal Cobs. $ 2,000
