CHINA. "Bagongbao Like." Silver Eight-Votive-Treasures Presentation (Buddhist Offering Tael) Ingot, ND (ca. early 18th century). EXTREMEY FINE.
cf. BMC-1282-3 (Class XCI, Group A). Double golden fish shape. A nicely detailed ingot with fine scales visible on the fish and sporting an even, dark gray tone throughout. Compare to a similar example, though not nearly as attractive, that realized a hammer of $4,000 in our August 2012 Hong Kong auction.
Estimate: $2000.00- $4000.00

"雙寳魚圖" 八聖寶型佛教祭塔一兩銀錠。
雙魚形狀。細節出眾的銀錠。魚身的鱗片仍清晰可見，通體帶深灰包漿。我們的2012年八月香港拍賣曾以$4,000拍出類似的一枚，但遠不及此枚迷人。 On September 1, 2019, the United States enacted new tariffs on collector's items manufactured in China. Accordingly, all buyers in forthcoming Stack's Bowers and Ponterio Hong Kong Auctions who wish to have any Chinese manufactured item delivered within the United States will be subject to these tariffs. Furthermore, as a result of the new tariffs, all orders will be shipped directly from our Hong Kong offices and shipments to the United States will be subject to our international shipping chart.
