Road to becoming the wealthiest: Starting From Treasure Hunting in the Cabinets Chapter 1476 - 706: The Most Skillful Hunters Often Appear a

Big Head finally gritted his teeth and said,

"Deal!"

The stuff had cost him a total of 300 dollars, and a profit of twice that made him feel a bit shortchanged, but it also gave him a sense of the bottom line.

"Move it all to the cargo ship."

Sean Knight gave the order, then whispered sothing to Douglas Cooper before heading back to the yacht.

Douglas handed Big Head a thousand dollars, slapping him on the shoulder with a smile,

"You’ve made a killing, man!"

Big Head’s mouth twisted into a grimace, but he didn’t speak, clutching the thousand dollars tightly.

Once the stuff was moved, Big Head directed the fishing boat away from the sea territory, and as he turned to look back at the yacht, he spat disdainfully,

"That guy probably thinks this rich person has such great taste... Great my ass! Can’t even tell apart fake coin blobs..."

"Boss, does that an we can keep tricking him with the stuff we brought over last night?"

"Of course! Just now was just a test, and since he took it, it ans he’s clueless! Tomorrow morning, we’ll bring over a load, make so fake gold coins, and charge him 3000-5000 dollars!"

After Big Head left, Douglas instructed the team mbers on the cargo ship to throw the fake items that Sean had secretly pointed out into the sea.

He took the blob of coins Sean had specifically ntioned and brought it to the yacht, handing it to Sean.

"Boss, is this thing—worth money?"

"It should be worth sothing. Though it’s not as rare as the Yongle Era Coin with three cash with reverse, its existence is very scarce."

Sean took the pry bar that Douglas handed him, prying off the copper coins one by one, while saying,

"Look at these copper coins, Longwu Era Coin, from the Southern Ming, a few hundred dollars for one; Hongguang Era Coin, can also sell for a few hundred dollars—no wait, this one has a phoenix on the back, this one is almost ten thousand dollars!"

Sean had previously been container treasure hunting and later searched for treasures all over the world, resulting in a large collection of ancient coins. At first, he sold them through Smith, but for the dostic coins, he did his research himself.

It was during this research that he discovered the brief Southern Ming regi was short-lived because the Tartars who took over destroyed a large quantity of Ming Dynasty coins, especially those from Southern Ming, making them much rarer in the collection field compared to the Five Emperors’ Money of the Qing Dynasty.

Instead, it was in Southeast Asia that more Southern Ming coins survived due to trade with the dostic market and special geographical factors at that ti.

Like this blob he now had in his hand.

After prying off a few Longwu and Hongguang coins, Sean unexpectedly found a Daming Era Coin.

"Boss, is this Daming Era Coin more common?" asked Douglas. He felt that anything nad Daming Era Coin should at least be from the early Ming period, such a widespread title.

"No, no, no, this too is a coin from the Southern Ming period," Sean laughed, "One would be worth more than a dozen ordinary Kangxi or Qianlong Era Coins. Let’s see..."

He flipped the coin over, using the pry bar to briefly clean the rust on the back, then said with a smile,

"This one has the ’marshal’ character on the back, the condition’s not bad, and its price higher, probably about a thousand dollars."

The nearby team mbers crowded around to listen to Sean talking about this.

"These next two days you guys can also collect so. I’ve noticed that there are quite a lot of Ming Dynasty coins in the sea, especially from the Southern Ming, and they’re relatively fewer dostically. Just bring back a blob, and you could earn a couple of months’ wages without an issue."

As he spoke, Sean continued to pry, and he uncovered the copper coin he had seen earlier with the Sky Eye.

Yongli Era Coin!

"Boss, is this one also from the Southern Ming?" Douglas asked, watching Sean carefully pry the coin loose.

"Yes, this is the most valuable one among the various Southern Ming coins..." Sean, holding the green-rusted, well-preserved copper coin, said with a smile,

"This one, the price is at least 1 million! In US dollars!"

"That high?" Douglas was startled.

"This one has the ’imperial’ character on the back, a Yongli Era Coin with ’imperial’ character. A decade or so ago in an auction, one started at a reserve price of 3 million RMB! The highest one sold for 12 million yuan, so imagine what it would be worth now!"

Sean tossed the coin in his hand, saying with a laugh,

"Co on, everyone take a look. Keep your eyes peeled these next couple of days, if you co across one, you’re essentially set for financial freedom!"

Douglas took the Yongli Era Coin, looked at it, and passed it to the next team mber.

The team mbers carefully inspected the copper coin before passing it back to Sean.

Sean pocketed the Yongli Era Coin, not into his pocket but into his spatial realm. He didn’t plan on auctioning it off; owning a piece like this was more satisfying than watching soone else enjoy it.

Besides, he wasn’t hurting for money.

After prying off a few more Longwu and Daming Era Coins, all that was left of the blob was dirt.

"Alright, when collecting, make sure to look carefully. We’ve already had people try to fool us with fakes," Sean said, brushing off his hands, "If you’re unsure about anything, co to ."

Sean walked back to his room, with Douglas following.

"Boss, what about that Big Head?"

"Right now, he’s probably feeling pretty smug. Tomorrow, he’ll definitely co over with even more fakes to deceive us. When that happens, let’s take him into custody and let blind guess witness the occasion, and then tie him up and sink him into the sea."

Sean’s tone was indifferent, as if he wasn’t determining soone’s fate, "Let blind guess tell those fishern that if anyone dares to try and fool with fakes that’s signing their death warrant!"
