Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!
Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.
Generally speaking, ruins should go to [email protected]

This is a bronze sword found in southern Hubei province, China, in 1965. It is inscribed with bird-worm seal script characters reading "King Goujian of Yue made this sword for [his] personal use".

I do believe that 1961 penny is MS-67 grade.
Sorry, although I do have backside photos of these pennies, I don't know how to share multiple photos on Lemmy.
Mods, I do hope this is an acceptable post. Please let me know if not..
