folksea Posted September 12, 2006 at 01:45 AM Report Posted September 12, 2006 at 01:45 AM The picuture should be a figure coin. In ancientry, man of honour was used to adorn jade at waistband. And the common people can only replace jade with the figure coin. "吉祥如意" is a popular benison, which is also the good greeting today. "吉祥" means "lucky"; "如意" means "as one wishes". In the below link, you can view more figure coins. http://www.szhwtcg.com/new_page_63.htm Quote
