Rare Korea Joseon 5 Mun Dang O Jeon Tongwiyong Mint 9.76g Sharp Fine Calligraphy:
$275.00

  • Up for sale is an exceptional and highly elusive numismatic treasure: a 100% authentic Korea Joseon Dynasty Sangpyeong Tongbo 5 Mun (Dang O Jeon / 當五錢) large cash coin, cast around 1883–1884.While standard, ordinary versions of this coin regularly command around $130, this specific piece is vastly superior and highly unique due to its exquisite engraving quality.Why this specimen is a top-tier collection piece:
    • Premium Fine Calligraphy Style: Most late-dynasty 5 Mun coins suffer from thick, crude, or blurred lettering. This spectacular coin features an incredibly rare, sharp, and elegant Fine Script (精字). The lines of the Hanja characters are remarkably thin, precise, and perfectly geometric—showing master-level hand-carved quality.
    • The Elite Tongwiyong Garrison Mint: Struck with the character \"統\" (Tong) on the right side of the reverse, confirming it was legally cast by the Tongwiyong (統衛營) – the Royal Guards Garrison Mint in Seoul.
    • Perfect Solid Weight (9.76g): It carries a wonderful, heavy weight of 9.76 grams and a 29.9 mm diameter. The fields are completely flat, and the outer rims are remarkably sharp and clean.
    • 100% Pure Cabinet Condition: Completely uncleaned, untouched, and original. It features a rich, dark chocolate-brown finish with genuine light-green malachite spots resting safely inside the characters.
    Specifications:
    • Weight: 9.76g
    • Diameter: 29.9mm
    • Reverse Marks: Top: 當 (Value) / Bottom: 五 (Value 5) / Right: 統 (Royal Guards Mint) / Left: 二 (Furnace 2).
    This is a investment-grade asset that will immediately stand out in any advanced Eastern Asian collection. Will be shipped with maximum security and a full tracking number. Reasonable offers from serious buyers are welcome!
