A Tengwang Pavilion Tower coin with genuine presence: the gold-tone finish catches light from across the room — a feng shui lucky coin with real substance. This is memorabilia in metal — a collectible coin, pure and simple.
The gold-tone finish flatters the design — this is a coin made to be shown. The Jiangxi connection gives the design its anchor. From Tengwang Pavilion to cranes, the design keeps giving — a fine lucky Chinese coin for wealth. Cranes carry wishes for long life. The lotus rises clean out of muddy water — purity, in the classic reading. The detailing holds up under a loupe, which is more than most souvenir coins manage, a strong Chinese collectible coin by any measure.
One for the album, one for luck — collectors understand — exactly what this kind of Chinese gift coin should be. A fine gift for the China enthusiast — or the start of your own tray.
