Posted By: mikeoz Sat, May 20, 2017 A little hard to read at so small an image, and it is lying on its side, which makes it even harder to read. But essentially it is a mark claiming to be of the time of the TongZhi emperor. So, Tong Zhi Nian Zhi - 同治年制. It looks like a rubber stamped seal so could be considerably younger. |
