As we all know, the Yuan Dynasty was a political power established by Mongols in the history of our country. Different from a few other post-Central Plains development models in minzu road, the Yuan Dynasty was the dynasty with the lowest degree of sinicization. They don't advocate Confucianism, and they don't like speaking Chinese. Mongolian is still used in court. Therefore, if we want to make a systematic study of this dynasty, we must master the unique written Ba language in Yuan Dynasty. It is said that there are no more than two digits in the world who can know this ancient Mongolian writing. It is a blessing that the treasure mentioned in this article can be found and collected today.
In the 1960s, Li, a herdsman by the Taoer River in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, one day found a mysterious gold medal with words on it under Solon Bridge. The words on the gold medal are very strange and illegible. Because it is a gold product with special symbols, Li immediately felt that it was not simple, so he secretly hid this gold medal with words in the cellar without telling anyone that it was hidden for 30 years.
Time flies, 1998, when Lao Li was dying, he finally couldn't help telling his son Xiao Li about it. His son's name is Li. He was very surprised and excited when he heard that there was a family heirloom at home. Li is a businessman, and lack of funds is common. Once he lost money in business, he remembered the metal card left by his father. Under the introduction of friends, Li found Liu Zhenchun and Liu Zhenchun, a member of China Collectors Association in Hohhot, with a gold medal. Because Liu and Zhang could not determine the identity of the gold medal at the moment, they had to come to the bank for identification first. This appraisal excited all three people present. Through spectrum analyzer analysis, the gold content of this metal plate reaches 58.44%, and the rest is silver. Whether it is a cultural relic or not, its special material proves that it is not an ordinary thing.
The keen perception brought by the profession made Liu and Zhang decide to buy this gold medal. After some bargaining, the final oral transaction price with Li Dacheng was 12000. After paying Li's deposit of 2000 yuan, the gold medal was temporarily kept by Liu Zhenchun. Out of habit, after returning to China, Liu Zhenchun studied the gold medal. Sure enough, he found a line of fine print on the gold medal, which read "Zhangzi No.96". When he saw these words, his first reaction was, could it be a stolen cultural relic from the museum? When Liu Zhenchun sent the rubbings of cultural relics to major museums for identification, Li also regretted it because he thought the selling price was too low.
In this way, the gold medal returned to Li's hands. Because of the urgent need for money, this time he directly found a gold and silver jewelry processing shop and wanted to melt the gold medal and exchange it for money according to the gold price in the market. According to the gold price, this gold medal can be exchanged for 17000 yuan in cash. However, just before the transaction, the shopkeeper was found to have tampered with the test in order to calculate less money, and the two sides broke up in discord.
In addition, Liu Zhenchun and Zhang Guolin are naturally reluctant not to buy cultural relics. They contacted Li again and found Jiangchuan, the former vice chairman of the trade union in Hohhot, with cultural relics. Jiangchuan has rich experience in cultural relics appraisal. He was shocked when he got the gold medal, because he speculated that the words on the metal card were Bathbavin in Kublai Khan's period of the Yuan Dynasty. In other words, the gold medal is a cultural relic of the Yuan Dynasty.
In order to get the official appraisal result, Li Gang began to look for a research institute, but due to the negligence of the staff of the research institute, he was turned away, so the appraisal was unsuccessful. Until the spring of 2000, Li came to Inner Mongolia University with a gold medal and asked for the help of relevant experts. Professor Bao Xiang, then vice president of Inner Mongolia University, saw the gold rubbings sent by the staff and realized the importance of this thing. The next day, I took Li's gold medal and went to Professor Bao for identification.
At the moment of winning the gold medal, Professor Bao Xiang immediately recognized the familiar Bart Bavin. "In the name of the Most High God, the emperor's orders cannot be disobeyed, and anyone who does not obey will be put to death." He translated the meaning to the people present. The discovery of the imperial edict gold medal in Yuan Dynasty is the first case in the world, and its cultural relic value and academic value are immeasurable. Professor Bao Xiang immediately decided to buy the gold medal. He called the director of the Mongolian Studies Center of Inner Mongolia University to discuss the price of the gold medal, and finally got the transaction price of $6,300 with Li Dacheng.
6,300 dollars is equivalent to 60,000 to 70,000 RMB. Now some imperial edicts of Ming and Qing dynasties can be sold to tens of millions, not to mention this rare imperial edict of Yuan Dynasty, which is even rarer in the world. Some experts say that his value is more than hundreds of millions. Obviously, Li got rid of the gold medal for thousands of dollars and didn't understand the cultural value. Of course, Professor Bao didn't buy the gold medal for profit. Later, he donated it to the National Museum of Inner Mongolia University. Now, the imperial edict gold medal has been rated as a national first-class cultural relic and the treasure of the Mengda Museum.
