榆关镇五王庄村Yuguanzhen Wuwangzhuang Cun

原表行号：842；出土时间：2015；窖藏，抚宁县榆关镇五王庄村一村民日前在挖自来水管道时发现两个已经破损的陶罐，里面装有刀形钱币。据介绍，这些钱币大约十几厘米长，初步鉴定为战国时期的燕国刀币。这批刀币存量不大，保存得不好，极易碎，品相差，但对研究战国时期人们的生产生活有一定的价值。刀币是对春秋战国时期的针首刀、尖首刀、明刀和齐刀、圆首刀等各种刀形货币的总称，因其形状像刀而得名。抚宁县文体局副局长李玉军称，以前抚宁县也出土过类似的刀币，此次出土的陶罐和大部分钱币已经破损，只有十多个比较完整，但锈蚀严重，字迹不清。

Original table row No.: 842; Excavation year: 2015; Location remark: Hoard. A villager of Wuwangzhuang village, Yuguan Town, Funing County, recently discovered two damaged pottery jars while digging a water-supply pipeline, containing knife-shaped coins. According to the report, the coins are roughly a dozen centimeters long and have been preliminarily identified as Yan-state knife coins of the Warring States period. This find is small in quantity and poorly preserved, being extremely fragile and in poor condition, but it has some value for the study of production and daily life in the Warring States period. "Knife coin" is a general term for the various knife-shaped currencies of the Spring and Autumn/Warring States period — needle-tip knives, pointed-tip knives, Ming knives, Qi knives, and round-head knives among them — named for their blade-like shape. Li Yujun, deputy director of the Funing County Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television and Sports, noted that similar knife coins had previously been unearthed elsewhere in Funing County; of this find's pottery jars and coins, most are damaged, with only about a dozen relatively intact but badly corroded and with illegible inscriptions.
