Certified bronze cowrie-money - earliest coinage of China! Western Zhou dynasty (1046-771 BC), China H#1.3; Schjoth A9.

Primitive earliest Chinese coinage, cast in bronze to imitate cowrie shells. 21mm long, 1.36 grams. Hartill type #1.3; Schjoth A9.

Seems to be with some light repairs, with original patina and dirt. The earliest bronze coinage of China and perhaps the world.
