Ein sehr schönes, altes Stück. Weißt Du denn aber auch, was es besagt?

This coin was used in Song Dynasty(960-1279).

Obverse side: "Chang2(2nd tune) Xing2 Pu2 Ti2 Zhi1 Xin1" means "Always with Buddhist's Heart, be kind-hearted and merciful"

Reverse side: "Fo2 Te4 Jie4" means:"The realm of the Buddha"

Reverse: The left character is "Buddha", the right portrait is a man who is praying...

To my great delight there is at last somebody in this forum who is an expert on Chinese amulets. I very much hope for a vivid communication on this subject.

Greetings

I have read your book about Chinese Amulette and was greatly surprised on your collections and related research works.
