Because jade is such a hard medium and doesn't change with age, it is extremely difficult to separate originals from high quality fakes. If there are a number of old fakes in circulation, it's very doubtful that experts could ever agree that the original had been found - especially with so much at stake.

Jade is a magical material and the artist’s who work it are magicians. The Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago has some fantastic examples of what ancient artisan’s were able to create. Some of my favorite pieces were bowls so finely worked the sides are translucent. If the opportunity ever present’s itself, it’s truly a must see.

Question: Is the bottom of the seal made of jade as well? With wear and tear of stamping things over the years, even so lightly, the jade would be chipped, unless of course, it was interchangeable made of something else, which would make sense with the passing of dynasties.

You know, I thought I saw one imperial seal sitting at the bottom of the well the other day, I’ll go check it out.

That!? I’ve had that thing sitting on my desk as a paperweight. I got it at an estate sale in San Francisco.

Considering the period it was lost it is most likely destroyed but there is a small chance it was hidden somewhere by some budding ruler before he was killed, maybe if metal detecting became a big hobby in china then some random citizen might find it, since if it was hidden most likely it was hidden in a box with a metal clasp or the like.

The people who possessed the seal knew of its power & value so I doubt they would destroy it fearing its power. It was probably hidden and re-hidden century after century. I think it is still out there hiding in plain sight. They need to keep an eye on the Tibetan Monks. If anyone is capable of keeping a secret for centuries it would be them. lol

odds are it was buried with the last person who held it or it was stolen. I doubt it even still exists

It's likely in Taiwan Palace Museum already. There are tonnes of crates in the basement, marked Property of the ROC, that contain precious artifacts. These crates are slowly being opened since 1949 and the artifacts cataloged and the results published in their Journal. So far, the curators have opened only about 35% of the crates, so I won't be surprised if the seal is actually in one of them.

I wouldn't be surprised by the story line of this precious jade, the stone is only a art piece of joy and yardstick of mystic. History is a form of life to be remembered after life, never to be forgotten.

To the contrary, relevant, sometimes critically important history, is forgotten everyday. More often than you might suspect, some truly important and sometimes 'true' details of history are often known to only a handful of people present and/or physically involved at the time. For any of a number of justifiable reasons, this knowledge is often suppressed and thus 'forgotten' and lost with those persons' passing.

Found it in a storage shed auction in Waco, Tx. Didn't know what it was so I trashed it. Should be in the town dump...

The He Shi Bi must be a really large piece of Jade. They must have carved something else besides the Heirloom Seal with it.

Whoever gets the seal, is destined to create a new dynasty under a new name. So... the seal could be anywhere. Imagine finding this. The heavens would say you're worthy for the mandate of heaven, and you can classify China and Taiwan as rebels.

yeah, it was lost sometime during the song dynasty, maybe the mongols took it and probably did something with it..or maybe the song emperor destroyed it so that the mongols will not have the mandate of heaven..which kinda worked out since the yuan dynasty was very short-lived.

I honestly think its been destroyed years ago. A thing with that much power and value would be too much of a threat.

Lost in the time of the Mongols. Would not surprise me. The Chinese caused many difficulties for the nomadic plains people before Ghengis Khan, he had his own exp dealing with the, and then the process itself of subjecting the northern kingdom could have just been frustrating enough for the spite of the Mongols to deny a symbol of legitimacy to any future Chinese leader and to those who would support them.

Watch it turn up at a garage sale one day. Then all hell breaks loose.

Some things are priceless. For everything else, there's Mastercard. All jokes aside, The Heirloom Seal of the Realm is priceless and unlikely to come up for auction. More likely the finder would choose their buyer and demand whatever astronomical price they like. Edited for a typo

more likely the finder can either give it to the chinese state for some compensation or suddenly fall "ill" and die with the seal disappearing then later magically re-appearing in the palace museum in beijing. this thing has more culturally significant value than all the bronze zodiac animal heads combined.
