The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Randomly took out a gold coin worth more than ten to two hundred thousand dollars from the box. The rest of it didn't need to be cleaned up by others. Zhang Nan took advantage of the effort to deal with it directly.

After washing the 5 pound gold coin in fresh water, use a cotton cloth and a paper towel without any chemical additives to absorb the water, and then put it in a moisture-proof coin box for temporary storage.

Nikolai took the box first, and Zhang Nanhao continued to take out the other coins in the box to clean it up.

The big guy took the transparent coin box, looked at it curiously before putting it in his trouser pocket, and said: "Why does this old witch's neck look thicker than mine?"

Nicholas heard that the boss doesn't treat the British very much, and there are very few British employees in the group. There is no British on this boat. On the contrary, there are a lot of people who don't want to see John Bull. So it's no harm to say such a sentence.

The Russians smoked John Bulls, but the Americans actually don't like the British very much. Although the starting point is different, the result is the same.

Here...

"Haha..." Zhang Nan laughed and finished laughing: "Don't say that about the queen in the company, lest you have a British guy who wants to discuss it with you."

When Nikolai Valuyev heard this, he quickly said, "Yes, boss.

However, from his appearance, it seems that he is not worried about the issue of "comparisons" at all. Except for the group of "monsters" around the boss, Nicola doesn't panic at all!

Born as a professional boxer, it is estimated that he is still one of the top three professional boxers in the world with absolutely no problem.

Zhang Nan took another look at himself, a guy who is usually taciturn, but sometimes a bit straightforward in front of him. Suddenly, some images of spoof butchers and cooks in film and television series popped up in his mind, and they were similar to the Queen of England. Combining images, couldn't help but smile again.

It's not that I have opinions on butchers and chefs, who made those wicked directors bad enough, and the old saying "big faces and thick necks, either cooks or butchers." It is too influential.

Carefully take out the other coins in the box. There are still 6 gold coins and 3 silver coins. They are all washed in a water basin. After removing the stains on the top, I feel that the doctor is getting more and more interesting.

Two 1795 Liberty Cap Ten Dollar Eagle Gold Coins, the earliest known gold coins in the United States.

Seeing that the surface of the whole coin is silky and the bottom plate is intact, put it into the coin box after handling it carefully.

He joked: "I regret that I cleaned this box in front of so many people. These two pieces are worth one million pieces, no problem."

Everyone was very cooperative, followed by a smile, and congratulated the boss by the way: What kind of person are you? You are a superman. Would you care about the hard dividends that such a small amount of money brings?

If the proportion of dividends is small, don’t forget that everyone has a generous salary, and all the expenses required for the ship and the ship are paid by the company, and the company is fully owned by Zhang Nan.

These two gold coins are valuable. In fact, the number of coins in existence today is no smaller than that of "Yona and the Lion", and the market price can be nearly an order of magnitude higher, just because they are American gold coins.

The US collection market is larger than that of the UK, and the title of "America's First Gold Coin" is a super value-added point. Many rich American coin collectors want to have a "1795 Liberty Hat Ten Dollars".

Prosperity antiques chaotic times gold, these gold coins are both rare antiques and gold, plus the United States is now the world's first comprehensive national strength, this is the first type of gold coin in the United States is not a high price!

There are also three "1808 American Statue of Liberty Face Left Edition Gold Coins", one of the masterpieces in the history of American coinage. They are also almost unused, and their value is not lower than the previous "1795 Liberty Hat Golden Eagle".

The last gold coin is the "1798 American Liberty Hat Gold Coin". This Zhang Nan knows that there are at most 10 coins in the world, but because of the lack of the value-added bonus of "the first gold coin in the United States", this will cost half a million dollars. NS.

The remaining three silver coins are not simple, especially one of the "1794 American Statue of Liberty Silver Coin", which can be said to be the earliest coin minted in the United States. There are currently more than 100 coins in existence, and many of them are severely worn.

As for the one in my hand...

The bottom plate is intact, without wear, and there is a faint cyan oxide layer on the surface. Zhang Nan gave a relatively conservative estimate of 2 to 2.5 million US dollars, which shocked several nearby folks who did not know much about the high-end US coin collection market!

You can understand one million gold coins, one million silver coins...

"Gentlemen, you have to understand the madness of the gang of wealthy collectors who have too much money to go to pursue the'First Coin of America.'

Once in the collection, the brain is easy to get hot, even fanatical!

Moreover, having such a piece is very face, and it can increase one's weight in the collection circle.

To put it ugly, if there are not a few ‘first’ support scenes in the collection, you are embarrassed to say that you are at the top of the coin collection circle. Generally, no matter how large the quantity of goods is, you are a nouveau riche.

Also, even if there is, this person will have to compare the state of possession of coins.

This one belongs to the highest level..."

The remaining two coins are of the same variety and are a circle smaller than the previous silver coins because they are half-dollars.

"The 1797 American Statue of Liberty Half-round Silver Coin", Zhang Nan gave a judgment that a single dollar was up and down, and it was too expensive!

There will be people guessing that the doctor who owned this batch of top collectible coins must be a very famous doctor at the time, otherwise it is impossible to have so many top coin collections.

The result was rejected by Zhang Nan.

"Not necessarily, as long as it is a surgeon who can do it.

First, with his income, plus the collection time of several years, at most ten years, it is not difficult to own these ten coins.

Don't forget that the ship sank in 1857. The earliest one in the box was cast in 1794, only 61 years after the shipwreck time.

At that time, many of these coins were actually still in circulation. Good quality may be deliberately stored, but the premium is not too exaggerated. It may be several times, ten times, or even two or three times the value of the currency itself. .

The ship sank 138 years ago. In the last sixty years or so, that is, after the collapse of the gold standard in 1933, gold coins have become collectibles and preserved in value, and they have long ceased to circulate as money.

The years and months when this unlucky doctor collected the coins is completely incomparable with today’s..."

Zhang Nan thought of something that happened in his previous life: In 1995, when he made antiques by himself, the old antique dealers in Anhui Province would bring him large quantities of silver dollars when they sent antiques to Yanxian.

Bao Lao Baozhen, Yuan Datou sent home 55 yuan a piece, no appearance is particularly ugly.

Except for 10,000, there will not be a single "Gansu plus character". The big head of Yuan sent is not about taste. No matter the variety, it is three years, eight years, nine years, and ten years. One thing, not to mention the version is not the version.

No distinction at all, all 55!

Long Yang has the same rules. If you poke too much and are too ugly, you won’t send it over. Bring two or three small stamps, the same as the original light and colorful ones. Except for the legendary Ssangyong, other provinces and varieties are in charge of you, all 85 One piece is priced, and it hasn't been played as finely as in the Shanghai ghost market in the 1980s.

Except for Datou and Longyang, no other varieties are sold, because these two are the most popular and the most convenient to sell in large quantities.

The silver dollar market in the mid-1990s was so wild and unreasonable!

Every one or two months, Zhang Nan would add those he had collected locally, making up at least 500 pieces, and then sending them to Shatoujiao, Pengcheng.

That year, 20,000 to 30,000 people in Yueyan County opened factories and worked in Pengcheng, and acquaintances took over there.

Yuan Datou has a unified price of 80 and Longyang has a unified price of 125. If you remove the toll and expenses, you can earn ten to twenty thousand per trip.

Then why don't people from Anhui directly send it to Pengcheng?

Don't look at these from the perspective of the Internet age. One is that the information is not well informed, and the other is that you have to be guarded when you travel with a large number of finances that year!

Zhang Nan was an old friend of the "regular antique dealer" he knew when he was a tutor. Only then did he dare to come to Yanxian to explore the wind, and only after a few deals did he slowly expand.

If you don't have any acquaintances, how dare you take a few hundred silver dollars to wander around at a time, let alone go to the Special Economic Zone back then, you need to apply for a border defense permit and pass an inspection checkpoint.

Take a lot of silver dollars with you, and beware of losing your money!

As for Zhang Nan, the shuttle bus from Zayan County to Pengcheng is available every day, with twenty to thirty thousand people over there.

The owner and driver of the car are familiar with each other. Even if they are unfamiliar, there are acquaintances who say hello. Some of the drivers can hide things for you.

Besides, when the scheduled shuttle bus is scheduled, the people who check that level are already familiar.

Pengcheng Shipments are also locals from Yanxian County. After two contacts, they are both acquaintances and friends, safe and reliable.

The reason why Zhang Nan in his previous life lived relatively well after entering the new century? It was not because of the incredible number of bronzes, official kiln porcelains, and celebrity calligraphy and paintings he saved. The background actually came from silver dollars!

Very early on, I wondered about leaving some seemingly rare versions of Longyang, and some extremely beautiful ones will remain. In the mid-90s, when I delivered them to Pengcheng, I really saved a lot of them.

Yuan Datou was in a similar situation, but he didn't pay attention to the small version, nor did he collect the eight-year-old goods, although at that time it felt that there were very few eight-year-olds.

It is a collection of Yuan Datou that can be particularly "beautiful" or alternative standard goods ~ www.readwn.com ~ brand new, no traces of use, the top colorful light, these will be picked out, wrapped in toilet paper, stuffed in a plastic bag, and then locked the drawer inside.

As a result, I later discovered that I had saved a few "Shandong Big Deductions", not to mention the high-score mass-produced goods after entering the box of coins, full of drawers.

As for Long Yang, after 2010, I counted it. There are more than 20 old Jiangnan. The Jiangnan Wuxu dragon, which I have always seen particularly pleasing to the eye, is almost two hundred.

As for Xuan San, there are two new and dismantled ones, a total of sixty, the original light, multi-colored half drawers, the more valuable they are stored.

Total?

I used to feel that this guy was too ugly, and there were a lot of them, so I kept a hundred particularly beautiful ones.

In the last life, this would be such a primitive self-examination, because let alone there is no place to buy professional books about silver dollars, there is even no concept of buying books!

There are opportunities to collect coins, and what is needed more is the times; not to mention that it is 138 years away, it is 20 or 30 years away. The difficulty and cost may be different from heaven and earth!
