Dimensions: 81.5 x 26.9 mm; Weight: 369 gms. "Yuan Ji" (private bank name) at center, "Yu" at either end, no stamps on reverse. Typical shape with slightly raised ends and ripple pattern on face. The three stamps across face are similar to those found on ingots from the wreck of the VOC East-Indiaman Geldermalsen except the stamps on this bar are circular instead of square.
