Chinese charm of the late Qing period. I have several TaiPing or Secret Society charms here. The philosophy of these secret societies is complex and based on nationalism and religious practice. This is another piece that is expertly engraved and punched. Tai Ping Chin Hua (?) (R,L,T,B) loosely translated it means "Great Peace on Earth" as a declaration rather than a wish. I believe it might be Tai Ping related. Brass, 36mm & 17.34 g.
