    Antique (at least I think) sycee from China. I am not sure how to authenticate it or read the writing on it.

      Thanks! Is there a name for this?
    2. USACollect, 14 years ago
      Also is the ingot in a mold or is the whole thing an ingot.
    3. USACollect, 14 years ago
      Thanks! One more question, is there any easy way to translate the writing?
    4. USACollect, 14 years ago
      I was actually almost going to do that!

      Do a specific gravity test to determin it's metal. These are faked a lot and made of white brass.
