Recently, the transaction of various old coins is particularly hot, and the market of many ancient coins is constantly rising.
Among them, there are 3 1 yuan coins, and they are auctioned for a high price of 206,510 yuan.
It is the following coin:
I believe that there are many fans of Xiaotian who know them, and even have started with them. These three coins are the 35th anniversary commemorative coins of the founding of the People's Republic of China. But why does this set of commemorative coins exceed 200,000?
That's because it has more versions than you know, and there are significant gaps in the number of versions.
Commemorative coin for the 35th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China
This set of commemorative coins is also the first set of ordinary commemorative coins issued in the mainland, and it is a real opening head coin. However, it issued a total of 20.41 million coins (controversial), which is particularly large compared with the commemorative coins of the same period, so it did not become the king of coins.
It is worth mentioning that because of the casting of the mold, the issuance of each coin in this set of commemorations is different. The industry generally believes that the "founding ceremony" minted 2.092 million pieces, the "Great National Unity" cast 8.793 million pieces, and the "Long Live the Motherland" cast 9.068 million pieces. The remaining minted quantities are refined coins.
Therefore, the founding ceremony has also become a supporting rib coin, and the collection value is particularly high.
At present, the whole set of commemorative coins for the 35th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China exceeds 700, and the "founding ceremony" can reach about 500 per coin. Some people may see here will ask, this and 200,000 gap is also too big, don't worry, this is just the performance of the general coin.
What we need to know is that this set of commemorative coins is jointly minted by Shen coin and Shang coin, but the same set of commemorative coins minted by the two factories is obviously different! As a result, there are 4 common versions, and the collection value is also different.
4 versions
In the ancient commemorative coins, two kinds of general coins and refined coins are generally issued. Among them, the issuance of refined coins is more rare and the craftsmanship is more exquisite.
Due to the huge difference between the Shen coin version and the shang coin version, this set of commemorative coins can be divided into 4 common versions, namely the upper coin version of the ordinary coin, the upper coin version of the refined coin and the Shen coin version of the ordinary coin and the refined coin.
Among the common coins, the number of Shen coins minted is even rarer, according to the "Shenyang Mint Atlas", Shen coins minted a total of 6.136 million Jianguo coins. From this calculation, the number of shang coin plates is much more than that of Shen coins. In this way, it seems that the Shen coin version will be more precious.
But the problem is that the color of the upper coin version is yellow, and the color of the Shen coin version is white. But the former looks brighter, and most Collectors prefer the former, so there is basically no gap between the two versions of the collection value.
In addition to the color, the two versions in the pattern details and edge teeth, there are also many differences, but because the collection value is basically the same, we do not have to grasp this detail, the simplest way to distinguish, is to see the color and "one circle" font, the coin is thinner, Shen coin fat. Looking at the picture above, can you tell the difference?
The biggest gap is coming, that is, refined coins!
According to the original plan, 150,000 sets of refined coins will be issued, of which Shen Coin is responsible for the production of 100,000 sets. However, the follow-up plan has been adjusted. In the end, according to the records of the "Tuzhi", the Shen coin actually minted 141,164 sets, so that the amount of minting of the upper coins is very rare.
Because it was originally the more popular version of the coin, and in the refined coin, its number is particularly rare, so that its collection value is extremely large! At the beginning, the refined coin worth more than 200,000 yuan for the 35th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China is the upper coin version.
The Shen coin version with the same score is not even less than 10,000, and the gap is very huge.
The biggest difference between the two versions is that the Shang coin version of the memorial hall has no columns, while the Shen coin version has, if you have it, you can also see which version you are.
