宋、金、元银锭断代和铭文辨析

Discimination of the Silver Ingots Cast in Song, Jin, Yuan Dynasties and Analysis of Their Inscriptions

本文列举《文物》、《考古》、《东南文化》、《中原文物》、《江汉考古》等杂志所发表的银绽出土断代文章中，金代银锭误作南宋银锭三例，金代银锭误作元代银锭三例，南宋银使误作元代银锭一例，指出无纪年银锭的铭文特征是区别宋、金、元三代银锭的重要依据，其行人姓名、称量方式、税制内容、金银铺名、银锭成色及花押符号无不带着时代信息。只有进行综合的、系统的排列和考证，才能恰如其分地断其归属。

The article mainly concems the method of ascertaining whether a certain silver ingot was cast in Song,Jin or Yuan Dynasty.From the articles published in magazines:Historical Objects;Archaeology;Eastem and Southem Culture; Central China Historical Objects; Jiang Han Archaeology,are quoted three examples of mistaking silver ingots of Jing Dynasty for those of Southem Song Dynasty,three of mistaking silver ingots of Jin Dynasty for Yuan Dynasty.The inscriptions on the silveringots bearing no indication of time prove to be very inprotant factors in their discrimination.The name of the maker,the method of weighing,the tax system,the name of the gold and silver shop,the the quality of silver infots and the sinature on the ingots all carry the message of the dynasty concemed.Only through systematic and comprehensive arrangement and venfication can the year in which a silver ingot was cast be correctly determined.
