"PBK", perhaps TNet's best research said (in 2009) the following when another one of these Medallions was found:
"I believe that this is a subscription promotion token issued by LOOK magazine, and is listed as such in Alpert & Elman's Tokens & Medals."

This appears to be the reverse:

"BOO CIOWAN" (Board of Revenue mint in Bejing). The Manchu mint name translates to Pao-Ch'uan, or "The Fountain head of the Currency".

you and the Chinese angel, Joy both say Manchurian-- not Tibetan. she has not held the item only saw the photos. she says Qing dynasty and agrees with you that it's (pronunciation) Qian Long.


although she by far a whole cuter than you--- my amazement at your knowledge of all things metal never ceases to impress this old dog.:icon_thumleft::icon_thumright: :notworthy:


hope to play with Joy & her small ------ but lovely, puppies again this week :dontknow: :happysmiley: :icon_biggrin: :love4:

Cool finds!! What a coincidence, found a 1700s Chinese cash coin last week. Yours is nicer condition! Really cool to be finding them here in NY. Well done, congrats and HH
