Beschrijving keerzijde Central field presents a finely detailed proof rendition of the Fuhao Square Ding (妇好铜方彝), an ornate Late Shang Dynasty (c. 13th–11th century BCE) ritual bronze vessel, rendered with intricate taotie mask motifs and geometric registers across its body and lid. The denomination 300元 is inscribed in the upper field, with a secondary legend identifying the vessel as 商·妇好铜方彝 along the left margin. The legend 1kg Ag .999 appears in the lower field, denoting the coin's weight and fineness. The exquisite detail of the casting replicates the complex surface ornamentation characteristic of Shang bronze ritual wares.

Aanvullende informatie

Part of China's annual Bronze Ware commemorative series, this kilogram silver issue draws on the Shang and Western Zhou dynasties — roughly 1600 to 771 BC — when Chinese ritual bronzes reached a technical and artistic peak unmatched in the ancient world. The series was designed partly to assert institutional legitimacy for China's archaeological heritage at a moment when looted bronzes were commanding record prices at international auction, a politically sensitive situation that prompted official cultural programming throughout the 2000s and into the 2010s.

Mintages for kilogram issues in this series were tightly controlled, rarely exceeding a few thousand pieces.
