A commemorative coin memorialising The Taiping Rebellion of 1851; the obverse characters reading Taiping Tian Guo, and the reverse characters reading Sheng Bao, 11 cm diameter, post Qing Dynasty; together with a mottled Junyao style lug vase with oviform body, 17.5 cm high (2)For the original example of this coin, compare that held by The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom History Museum at Zhan Yuan Garden in Nanjing. The collapse of Manchu Imperial Law that characterised the reign of Hsien Feng (1851-1861) was mainly brought about by the Taiping rebels. Hong Xiuquan, the charismatic leader of the Taiping cause, was moved by visions to oppose both the traditional order of Confucius and the Imperial regime; he received huge support from across China from those marginalised or forgotten by a legal and bureaucratic system that had lost all integrity and direction.. Please note that there are some areas of deterioration to this lot, including: some apparent verdigris, or other green agent, on both sides of the cash.
