Extended data:
Shunzhi Bao Tong:
Shunzhi Bao Tong is a coin of Qing Dynasty, which was minted in Shunzhi period (1644 ~ 166 1). Shunzhi Bao Tong was the first currency made after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs. The inscription of "Shunzhi Bao Tong" sung by Qian Wen is the opposite.
Most of them are bronze and a few are bronze; Money tends to be flat, and the range is large. Bao Tong in Shunzhi is dominated by small flat money, and a few of them are converted into twenty big money, which can be divided into five types according to background changes and casting stages.
In the early period of Shunzhi Qian, the coinage technology of Ming Dynasty was retained, which made its layout have obvious characteristics of Ming Dynasty coins, but in the later period, it completely broke away from the coinage system of Ming Dynasty and established the unique coinage style of Qing Dynasty. "Five styles of Shunzhi" played a connecting role in the evolution of coins in Ming and Qing Dynasties.
After the Qing army entered the customs, a series of large-scale wars broke out between the Qing regime, the Nanming regime and the peasant rebel regime. The unification war of the Qing regime dominated the casting of Shunzhi currency in the early stage, which was a classic case and material evidence of currency evolution in wartime.
Zheng He's unprecedented voyage to the Western Seas began in trade, and Yongle Bao Tong in the Ming Dynasty became the hard currency of international/regional trade at that time.
The characteristics of Kangxi Bao Tong:
Emperor Kangxi reigned for sixty-one years, because the social politics was relatively stable, the economy developed rapidly, and the commodity exchange and monetary economy were also developed. Therefore, most of the coins in the Kangxi period were exquisitely cast, with thick kinds of money, beautiful and generous words and a large number of coins, which were very rich in the world.
In the first year of Kangxi (1662), the Qing government ordered to stop casting money from the previous generation of Bao Tong, Shunzhi, and instead cast money from Bao Tong, Kangxi, and stipulated that the money system would be the same in the future.
Throughout the Kangxi period, there were 24 mint bureaus in China. At that time, due to the problems of smelting and casting costs and privately minted coins, each Kangxi coin once weighed four cents, one cent and seven cents respectively, resulting in three different weights of Kangxi Bao Tong coins we see today.
Except Baoquan and Baoyuan Bureaus set up by the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs, the characters on the back of Kangxi Money are all in Manchu, and the characters on the back of Bao Tongqian, which are fiddled with by other foreign money bureaus, are all in Manchu on the left, and the characters on the right correspond to Chinese characters.

Ancient copper coins belong to cultural relics. Because of its long history, less handed down from generation to generation and increasing market demand, a large number of imitations and fakes have appeared, so it is very important for ancient coin lovers to identify the authenticity. Fake fakes not only have no function, but also bring negative effects, so authenticity is the minimum premise, but appearance is the second.
Before discussing the identification of authenticity, it is necessary to clarify the concept of modern replica. With the help of modern advanced technology and bright metal materials, ancient copper coins are presented in a brand-new form, which has certain appreciation and aesthetic value. The concepts of "genuine" and "counterfeit" are not suitable. As new things, they can't be faked without the concept of real money and silver.
