The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

After a period of sorting and cleaning, 3,605 gold coins were finally cleared from the safe. The preliminary statistics reached a face value of about 20,000 U.S. dollars, accounting for only a small part of the military salary in the record.

If these are military pay.

However, the value of these gold coins is not particularly high today. Zhang Nan estimated that it would be between 1 and 1.5 million US dollars, which is not as valuable as some messy jewelry extracted from the residual humus.

Those pieces of jewelry might have belonged to a private person, and there were a lot of precious gems inlaid on them, which should have been put in the insurance inventory when they were on the boat, and it ended up sinking with the boat.

Unlucky consignor!

In the upper left corner of the safe, there is a small closed grid with a small steel door and a keyhole belt.

This is a common setting in large safes, double insurance, generally it will contain the most valuable items or important documents.

As soon as the outside was cleaned up, the guy who was familiar with the safe lifted up the electric drill.

"Ziziquack, jingle!" After a while, he drove.

Still Zhang Nan stepped forward and saw that the most conspicuous thing here were the two boxes that were not completely rotten, one large and one small.

Take the big one first. Just get started, the lid is shifted.

Take it down carefully, remove the lid, and find that there is a necklace inside.

This is a jewellery box. I probably glanced at it, then handed it to Nicole, "It should be a diamond."

Nicole also glanced, and handed the contents of the box to the statistician who was waiting behind.

The largest diamond on the pendant is estimated to be around twenty carats, and she still doesn't like it.

The second box is flat. I don’t know what material it is. It’s not bad.

As soon as he opened it, there was a little water, and when he saw what was inside, Zhang Nan frowned, and said after a short while: "This is interesting, God knows how these three little guys came here."

Others were confused when they saw the situation clearly. It was Charlie who said, "Brother, are these things in your home museum?" WwW.8㈦㈦zw.℃οm

"No, I didn't let people stare at the auction company for this, and I don't like to be taken advantage of. It doesn't matter if I have these."

As he said, he also gave the box to the statistician and said: "I will let someone check it later. I will have all three of them based on the reference price of the most recent auction."

"Yes, boss."

The statistician took it carefully.

In the box, there are three gold coins embedded in the shape, exquisite, and there is no trace of circulation at all. God knows which Yankee got it from Beijing and went up from New York. Luxury cruise ship in the Mediterranean.

One is rare, this will be three at once!

Strange.

The overall collection value has to temporarily decline, and the "two-thirds" is Zhang Nan's generous.

Guangxu Yuanbao Hubu Kuping one or two gold coins were cast in the 29th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, that is, in 1903, Tianjin Mint Factory of Hubu.

One of the "Twenty Treasures of Huaxia Coins", it occupies a very important position in the Huaxia Gold Coin family, and can be regarded as the most exquisite representative of the Huaxia Silver Standard Currency System.

The gold coins under the silver-based currency system, and the wonderful combination, do not need to research anything to understand that they will be rare.

The silver standard and gold coins are born with conflicting genes. When China's annual gold output was less than one percent of the world's gold production at that time, energy production was a ghost!

But this Zhang Nan really didn't have it before. The mainstream gold coins in the history of the world have collected seven or eighty-eight, but there really weren't any gold coins in the Qing Dynasty before.

The Qing dynasty gold coins that I knew before were not in museums, but were basically clearly circulated private collections. Zhang Nan hadn't even thought about collecting them before.

Either I can't afford it, or I don't think it is necessary.

As for the reference price he said, it is counted as two-thirds of the auction price. It means that he wants to collect it privately. This is relatively reasonable.

As for the salvage company operation, we must be reasonable and reasonable. The majority of the money is made by our boss, but it is not guilty to hack the hard money of the employees.

As for why they were on the "Royal Cruise Ship Republic", just as the bronze medal of the 1936 Berlin Olympics was found in a mountain village in China and Guizhou two years ago, the reason can only be guessed: the mud wall of an old mud wall house. Inside, a bronze medal was found that was harmed into the mud wall. After some research, it was found that it was a medal for the Berlin Olympics.

Who is its owner? How did China come from, and how was it built into the mud wall of the mud-walled house built before liberation?

If you can't get the results, it's better not to go to the research, so as not to waste your efforts.

There is also a small pocket in the small grid. The material may be anticorrosive leather. No wonder it can stop the erosion of sea water and time. It is hard to come by.

Apart from this pocket and useless rotten dirt, there is nothing else of value in it.

The headband on the leather pouch is also leather, but it is almost rotten.

Carefully opened the opening and tried to pour it into the basin, and dozens of shiny little ones fell out.

Diamonds, Zhang Nan can immediately tell that these are diamonds.

After cleaning, I counted 37 processed loose diamonds, all weighing between 3 carats and ten carats, which is a good find.

Give it to the statistician.

At this point, the safe has been cleaned, and the gain of several million dollars is not bad for the time being. It is one step closer to Mr. Martin Bayer not being able to get Zhang Nan's personal reward.

Take off the rubber gloves and the high-tube rain boots, wash them with fresh water, and say to the chief diver Vita Bruno smoothly: "I hope we can be lucky from tomorrow. With this little thing alone, it's worth what you said. Wine money ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is not necessarily a loss."

When a salvage ship of the level of "Searcher" is dispatched, the necessary expenses are a lot every day, and the baby that is found a little bit will lose money!

Weta listened to Zhang Nan's words and responded with a smile: "Boss, I have a good hunch this time. The company is 100% profitable, and the following gains must be very impressive...

Also, haven’t we found a submarine one nautical mile away. If you want, you can mobilize the large crane of the drilling company to get it. Boss, your military museum will have a good collection..."

"Let you auspicious words, I hope you are right, otherwise it will be very boring.

But even the submarine, U550, I'm afraid the torpedoes and shells inside will blow up! "

After washing his hands, he glanced at his watch, "We have dinner on the boat. Working meals are fine. No special preparation is required."

It's time for dinner.

The submarine Vita-Bruno said was accidentally discovered when the small salvage vessel that had determined its location first searched the sea to determine the exact location of the shipwreck before the "Searcher" came here. m.⑧七七zω.℃oＭ8七⑦zω.℃ǒΜ

After diving exploration and historical data investigation, it was found that it was very likely that the German submarine U550 was killed by the US coast guard anti-submarine aircraft in World War II, and it had been wading on the seabed for more than 50 years.

The IXC submarine is not small in size, with an underwater displacement of 1232 tons and six torpedo tubes.

The warship sunk in World War II belongs to the original country?

That international law was basically accepted by the world six years later. Zhang Nan didn't want that submarine, mainly because it was a dangerous issue.

Also, my own military museum is actually used to hold New York City as a hostage, but it is not a toy specially made for show off.
