D:5.8cmWeight:66gThis coin is a carved mother coin (diaomu) of the Xianfeng Yuanbao series, valued at 500 cash (Dang Wubai), issued by the Board of Revenue Mint (Baoquan Ju) during the Qing Dynasty. It served as the original master die for casting circulating large-denomination coins. The obverse features the four characters "Xianfeng Yuanbao" in regular script, while the reverse bears the Manchu mint mark "Baoquan" and the Chinese characters "Dang Wubai" (meaning "500 cash"). With sharp, deep strokes and clear carving traces, it represents the pinnacle of Qing Dynasty coin-casting technology and is an extremely rare treasure in Chinese numismatics.
