Summary
Description 常平通寳 背戸二 - Dr. Luke Roberts 02.jpg |
English:
This Sangp'yong t'ongbo is a large, coin probably from the late Choson dynasty. I think the top character on the back denotes the mint, and the bottom (the number two) the value, but I need to confirm this. The calligraphy of the front is very elegant and the make of the coin itself is of the highest quality.
