At that moment, Fang Jinbo spoke up. "There are so many copper coins here. Let's look around and see if there are any other engraved mother coins."
"One would be enough. I wouldn't dare hope for another." Qi Baofu laughed, but despite saying that, he still had some small expectations. He squatted down again and began rummaging through the coins.
Unexpectedly, Fang Jinbo had really been right. There was indeed another engraved mother coin among the copper coins, and Qi Baofu could hardly believe his eyes.
This engraved mother coin was an engraved mother coin from the Daoguang Bao Yuan Bureau. Its mint opening had not yet been made, and it was in excellent condition, without the slightest flaw. The carving was smooth, and the faint patina brought out the refined copper quality of the piece perfectly. It displayed the standard Imperial Manufactory carving style, with the knife moving in one continuous flow. It was truly a rare and perfect collector's item.
After examining it, Chu Chen handed it back to Qi Baofu and said, "It's definitely genuine. Although it isn't as valuable as the previous one, it should still be worth well over ten thousand yuan."
Fang Jinbo smiled. "Old Qi, not bad. Looks like your luck has finally turned around."
Qi Baofu said with a delighted grin, "I wouldn't go that far. After all, you know where these copper coins came from. I'll have to compensate my friend somehow."
That was what he said, but this was still the first time he had encountered such good fortune. The corners of his mouth were practically splitting to the backs of his ears.
Just then, Mrs. Qi walked in. Seeing how excited Qi Baofu looked, she asked, "What happened? Did you run into some good fortune?"
"I found two bargains.
