Staff Cecil Lee Posted February 21, 2008 Staff Share Posted February 21, 2008 Dear All, In Singapore, some clients managed to purchase the fake Chinese ancient coins to be laid before the entire flooring of the home or apartment has been completed. Make sure that the coins are "metallic" e.g. copper coins not plastic. And last year clients purchased it at approximately S$2.50 or 25 cents each... But heard that some clients purchased at S$3.50 for 10 pieces - now (at The Bencoolen) which is diagonal to Sim Lim Square and The Bencoolen is opposite to The Burlington Square and also directly opposite OG Albert complex. See attachment. Warmest Regards,Cecil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted February 24, 2011 Staff Share Posted February 24, 2011 1. These are the photos of the 10 Qing (Ching) Dynasty coins.2.Other than coins with auspicious sounding wordings; the Qing Dynasty coinsare often used, today as symbolisms in Feng Shui.3. This is because the Qing Dynasty is one of the longest dynasties in China, stretchingfrom the reign of Shun-chifrom 1644 AD to 1911 AD.This dynasty : outwit, outlastany other dynasties by a mile.4. Often, under symbolism in Feng Shui; if you want to use such coins; try to choose coins from two of the longest lasting reigns that represents periods of prosperity such as Kang-shi or Chien-lung. For example in the 11th month of the 16th year of Chien-lung's reign 1752 AD he was just 41 years of age, Emperor Chien-lung celebrated his mother's 60th birthday.5. Real or geniune coins belonging to such an era (various periods) arevery rare; today. Thus majority of the coins used in Feng Shui are non-originals; they are either made of bronze, brass or a combination of such metals. These are duplicate or simply called"fake' coins.6. Depending on where one buys the coins and quantity or bybargaining; the price may range from Singapore $0.30 cents each to $0.60 cents per piece.7. The wordings side is often known as the Yang side. Which has four Chinese mandarin characters. While the Yin side has two inscrpitions "or flower side".
