| 表面の説明 | Broad, flat blade with a pointed tip tapering asymmetrically toward the spine, separated from the elongated handle by a distinct shoulder. A raised Chinese ideogram appears in relief on the lower portion of the blade field. The handle is defined by two parallel raised ribs running its full length, terminating in a circular ring at the pommel end. The entire surface displays a natural olive-green patina consistent with ancient cast bronze, with areas of earthen encrustation. The piece is uniface in character, with all decorative and inscriptional elements confined to this principal face. |

Yan occupied the northeastern frontier of the Zhou world, bordered by steppe cultures whose barter economies shaped local monetary forms long before cast coinage spread south. The pointed-tip knife money used in Yan — distinct from the明刀 types that followed — reflects this transitional period when the state was adapting nomadic tool-currency into something approaching standardized exchange. The ideograms cast into these pieces remain only partially decoded; scholars continue to debate whether they denote issuing authority, denomination, or mint location.
