In the World of the Bloody Raven; On the Metaphysical properties of silver.👻
There is no other substance in the universe that has such a contradictory duality than silver! While silver may have a multitude of useful physical and chemical properties, it also has the ability to be imbued with either a curse or a blessing. It is God's money, and at the same time The Devil's metal. ~ Brother Philip of the Celestial Monastery 1688 AD

The extra nugget or two of information is appreciated. I'm already familiar with the broad strokes of the American economic strategy with China. But I would love find real personal stories of trade or what would One coin typically buy in products and services at the time.
The real intriguing stories are the pipeline to get silver coins from mainland China to Hong Kong's Economic zone, but I'd be exposing lives literally at risk and closing off the Western collector's source of chopped TD coins.
