Item details and appraisal notes
The supported wording is Sichuan, Xuantong Yuanbao and Kuping 3 Candareens 6 Cash. No precise year is stated, and Sichuan must not be expanded into a named mint institution. Keep the final Cash unit visible whenever the denomination is transcribed.
Treat Sichuan as regional wording and preserve every small unit
| Feature | Supported evidence |
|---|---|
| Region | Sichuan; no named mint institution is supplied. |
| Date | No precise year is stated. |
| Kuping standard | Kuping 3 Candareens 6 Cash |
| Named type | Xuantong Yuanbao |
| Boundary | Region, named type and denomination support broad attribution only; they do not prove authenticity, fineness, a particular mint, design variety or year. |
Make the 6 Cash unit legible before comparing denominations
Sichuan inscription: Photograph the regional characters with adjacent lettering and border detail. Use the wording as supplied without turning it into a specific bureau or facility.
Kuping units: Show 3 Candareens 6 Cash in a continuous sequence and preserve the final unit. A decimal rendering would be less exact than the characters being documented.
Date and type: Keep Xuantong Yuanbao visible on a complete face while leaving the precise year open. Similar dated coins cannot fill the absent chronology.
Use three checks without turning them into attribution claims
| Check | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Whole faces | Locate Sichuan, Xuantong Yuanbao and Kuping 3 Candareens 6 Cash before enlarging any single character |
| Surface and relief | Separate weak strike, wear, scratches, deposits and old cleaning with neutral and raking light |
| Circumference | Follow the edge in order and use safe measurements only as comparison evidence, never as proof of mint or date |
Protect the coin while completing the image set
Keep bare metal above a padded surface and touch only the edge. Do not polish or dip it, and leave a fitted holder sealed; loose paperwork remains conditionally associated unless its connection is supported.

Questions before an appraisal
What should you check before selling?
What matters depends on the item. Photograph both sides, the edge, hallmarks or base marks, and any damage. Include the original box, certificate or weight information where relevant so we can decide whether an in-person inspection is needed.
