AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Lot of 32 Cantonese tokens (Qing Dynasty, 1780-1850) in solid mother-of-pearl, premium quality. Authentic export jewelry, flawless and without wear. Exclusive heraldic monogram of two intertwined initials (JP/PF) in Georgian style on the reverse, characteristic of high aristocracy. Each denomination (1, 5, 10, 50, 100) features a unique and deep relief on the obverse: rich figurative scenes with characters, pagodas and animals (horses, felines and birds). Great natural iridescence. Ideal for international high-end collecting or exclusive jewelry. I am open to offers commensurate with its historic value.
