Hi,

I've bought it some time ago for a small price. Described as 'money bar or a counterweight - Nguyen Lang - copper'.

The weight is 34.23g, 23mm x 9mm x 7mm.
This piece's colour doen't look like copper tought, it's whitish.

Maybe someone is familiar with Vietnam region, especially when dealing bars?

I've investigated again and found a piece that looks similar to my bar - https://sgbaldwins.com/auctions/anc...5005/lot/404

It looks like I put the first image upside down. So it should have looked as per below.
I also made mistake with dimensions.... The correct ones are 43 x 12 x 7.5mm so close to the ref. piece.
