Foreword: Shaanxi is really a historical and cultural treasure, and there are countless ancient tombs and cultural relics unearthed, and for a period of time, many people have purchased old things in Shaanxi. In those years, because of this behavior, many cultural relics died overseas, but fortunately, the improvement of the cultural relics law later made it impossible for these cultural relics dealers to hide, and more cultural relics were passed on to future generations.
At that time, there were often scenes of farmers digging out cultural relics, because the excavation of many ancient tombs in the local area made everyone very sensitive to cultural relics. Some of the excavated artifacts will be collected by the museum as a collection, and some will also be lost. Of course, it has to be said that because there are many historical dynasties, there are often times for cultural relics dealers to look away, and more than 10 coins found by a Shaanxi farmer have survived, and now they have become very important historical relics.
The farmer dug up the treasure
At that time, many people in Shaanxi would have some utensils in their homes, because there were more dynasties and many generations were very old. Although some of these treasures have been lost, a large part has been preserved by the local museum. The peasant Old Zhang Family also had a bronze vessel, but because he did not understand the importance of the object, he also made this instrument disappear, and he still does not know whether it was lost or abandoned.
Because this treasure also made Lao Zhang depressed inside, but the days had to go on, so he still went to the field every day to farm. On this day, he felt that he had dug up something, and with his previous experience, he also felt that what he had dug up should be a cultural relic, so he began to excavate with special care.
Although one object was broken because there was no prevention before, the remaining other objects were intact, and more than 10 items were excavated. These things look like copper coins, but there is something strange, there are 2 pieces that look like "knives", because they look like the bronzes before, he does not dare to slacken off, directly wrapped them and brought them home.
I don't know the goods sent to the museum for identification
The news that he dug up the treasure was also not shy, many people came to watch, but because the objects he dug up were strange, it also made everyone think that what Lao Zhang dug up was not valuable, and even some cultural relics dealers came to observe and felt that these objects had no "recycling" value.
This incident is a big blow to Lao Zhang, he firmly believes that these objects are treasures, even if the villagers laugh at him, the cultural relics dealers also think that these things are worthless, he still protects them very well. In order to solve the confusion in his heart, he also went directly to the local museum to find experts for identification.
After the appraisal, the experts told Lao Zhang very sure that the objects he found were indeed cultural relics, and they were all coins, coins minted by Wang Mang of the Han Dynasty. Two of them, similar to the shape of the "knife", are called "golden wrong knives", which were forced to be cast during the regency of Wang Mang at that time, and their existence is very small, and it is also of great significance for the study of the history and culture of that time. Such a statement also made Lao Zhang very happy, and he was willing to hand over these cultural relics to the state.
In summary: according to the cultural relics handed in by Lao Zhang, the local museum also gave him a corresponding reward, and in that year (1987), he rewarded Lao Zhang with more than 10 yuan, although it was not a huge amount, but it was also a lot of income. Later, with the excavation of various tombs, the number of golden knives has increased, but its value has always been very high, and the value of cultural relics handed in by Lao Zhang has reached one million, but their historical value is higher than their price.
