| Lot description: (t) CHINA. Qing Dynasty. Mixed Mint Cash (20 pieces), ND (ca. 1662-1700). Emperor Sheng Zu (Kang Xi). All are Certified by Zhong Qian Ping Ji Grading Company. Obverse "康熙通寶"; Reverse: Mint name in both Manchu and Chinese. A complete set of 20 mints, 2 of them have the diameter of 25.2 and 26.6 mm while the others are between 27.1mm - 28.4mm. Wholesome and original, all coins are well casted with characters well-formed. Gem quality without any cracks or repair, displaying pleasing brassy tone over the surfaces. The condition of the Boo Tai Poem coin is unrivaled and the Boo Nan is preserved exceptionally well. A full set as such is rarely seen. There were 22 mints but collectors mostly look for only 20 mints since Boo Gung and Boo Si are nearly unobtainable.
