Because she was so shocked, Li Shiyun stood there blankly, not even making a sound.
This item looked like a photo album, but after opening it, I discovered that it was actually an album specially used to contain commemorative coins.
On the first page of the book, you can see various coins placed there.
Li Shiyun didn't know much about these, but just from looking at the years of these coins, she knew that the ones in this thin book should not be ordinary commemorative coins.
Seeing his girlfriend like this, Ye Yuan smiled and said:
"Are you surprised or surprised?"
"Virtue!"
Because of Ye Yuan's gag, Li Shiyun quickly recovered from the shock.
So she asked in surprise:
"Have you done any research on these?"
No wonder she asked this question. There are really not many young people of their age who know something about ancient coins.
"Haha, I'm just an amateur. As you know, I occasionally salvage something from the sea.
How can you do this if you don’t understand these things?
So I went to learn some knowledge about ancient coins when I had time. Unexpectedly, I actually used them today. "
Ye Yuan said it very easily and humbly.
But in fact, he has a good understanding of some ancient coins at home and abroad.
Since the last time some gold coins and antiques from the Byzantine period were salvaged.
He began to cram in the knowledge.
He still clearly remembered that when he salvaged that batch of jewelry, he went to the Internet to find the answer.
Surprisingly, few of them can be found online.
From then on, Ye Yuan made up his mind that since he had to rely on the sea to make a living, the more knowledge he had about jewelry and coins, the better.
Who allowed there to be so many unknown ancient shipwrecks in the sea?
And there are countless precious treasures on those sunken ships.
If one day you really salvage a priceless treasure, but ultimately miss it because you don't recognize it, that would be the most ridiculous thing.
Li Shiyun didn't think much. After knowing that Ye Yuan knew something about these coins, she immediately urged:
"Then tell me quickly, what kind of coins are these, and which ones are precious?"
Ye Yuan and Li Shiyun have nothing to hide.
I just briefly glanced at the booklet with my senses.
I also confirmed that there were indeed several coins inside that were of great value, but I did not carefully observe each coin.
Now that I have time, I just want to take a look at how many rare coins are contained in this inconspicuous book.
The two of them ignored the garbage and items scattered all over the ground.
Just sitting on a worn-out chair.
Ye Yuan pointed to the coins inside and began to explain to Li Shiyun.
"This is Chuanyang, and it is also the silver coin of our country. It is the common name of the silver coin with the image of an ocean sailing ship minted by our country in the 1930s.
Among the thousands of old silver coins issued by China in modern times, its influence is second only to the "Yuan Datou" silver coin. "
Ye Yuan pointed to a silver dollar with a human head engraved with the words "21st Year of the Republic of China".
"Ah, I haven't seen it before. So this is the silver dollar of our country?"
Li Shiyun had a cute expression.
To be honest, despite his rich family background, his understanding of China is really not as good as that of Ye Yuan, a fisherman.
This made her, a top student, feel a little hot on her face.
Ye Yuan ignored his girlfriend's expression, pointed at another coin and said:
"This is Zuoyang, a trade silver round from French India, commonly known as Zuoyang. It was one of the foreign silver coins circulating in China in the late Qing Dynasty."
Ye Yuan pointed to a coin engraved with a seated statue of the Statue of Liberty holding a corset.
"Ha, I know this was released in 1926, right?"
Li Shiyun was very happy because he saw the year of issue of the coin under the goddess.
This will help her better understand the age of the coin.
Ye Yuan smiled and said nothing.
He leisurely flipped through the book in his hand.
There were also coins that Ye Yuan did not recognize. Regarding these, Ye Yuan honestly explained that he did not recognize them.
As for some currencies that he recognized, Ye Yuan would introduce them to Li Shiyun in the most concise words.
But when Ye Yuan turned over the coin he saw before.
Although I already knew that there was this coin in the booklet.
But when I actually saw it, I was still excited.
No way, this coin is simply too famous in the world of collecting circles, it is the 1939 Una on the Lion 5 pound gold coin.
The front of the gold coin shows the profile of a woman, and the back of the gold coin shows the queen sitting sideways on the back of a flying lion, holding a scepter in her hand.
The reason why Ye Yuan is so fond of this gold coin.
That's because, not long ago, at the just-concluded Heritage World and Ancient Coins platinum auction, this coin was sold at a transaction price of US$372,000.
This will only be held in August 2022, and it is only October now.
What does this mean? It shows that just relying on this gold coin, Ye Yuan and the others will have no problem entering the finals directly, not to mention the next round.
When Ye Yuan told Li Shiyun the price of the gold coin.
Li Shiyun was hesitant and excited, and her whole little face was flushed.
Ye Yuan continued to flip through the book. After sensing the gold coin, he stopped checking it. The reason was simple.
Isn't it enough to have this Yuna for a lion? Why should he waste his perception?
The next few silver coins or gold coins are also quite famous, but the price is far different from the previous Yuna and Lion coins.
Just when Ye Yuan thought there would be no more surprises waiting for them, a coin on the last page of the book suddenly appeared in front of him.
Seeing the image of the coin, Ye Yuandong shrank. Even though he had thousands of antiques and jewelry, he was shocked by the coin in front of him.
If Yuna and the lion are considered to be on the level of gold coin treasures, then this coin can be regarded as a ceiling-like existence among gold coins.
Seeing Ye Yuan being stunned by a gold coin.
As his girlfriend, Li Shiyun knew that this gold coin must not be simple.
Otherwise, even if it was a boyfriend who was just happy when he saw gold coins worth hundreds of thousands, how could he have such an expression.
Doesn't this look like a very fine gold coin, and its value is much higher than that of Yuna and Lion?
Thinking of this, Li Shiyun also looked carefully at this gold coin that could make her boyfriend speechless.
On the front of this gold coin, there is the Statue of Liberty holding a torch and an olive branch, with the words 1933 on the lower right side of the goddess.
On the back, there is an eagle flying freely.
