I don't usually go for ancients, but this one is pretty cool. I think I have identified it using Numista as FD# 896, 1 Cash - Tiansheng (Seal script) (1023-1032). It is just barely smaller diameter than a US Quarter, and I don't have access to my scale right now, so I can't weigh it. Report this Post to the Staff

This may be due to the thick patina obscuring it though. Welcome to the Ancients, hopefully with any luck you'll get Ancient Fever.
