Your remark that the mark might be Mongolian not Chinese is quite unwarranted, and shows that you are not willing to accept the truth.

I've been in the translation business for a very long time, all in Asia. Chinese is one of the Asian languages I'm fluent in, and I can recognize if Mongolian characters look similar to Chinese or not. This is completely different. Please do not try to divert attention away from what the conclusion must be.

If you don't like our opinion on this site, it is better to ask elsewhere.

Can I get an answer,.

Dear,Peter.
I haven't any answer for this question,.please help,.



I told you before what I think about this mark, somewhere. The so-called mark is fake and added after firing, in my view. The characters are completely wrong, incorrect Chinese writing. There is no character in Chinese like the center character you show. This alone makes it unbelievable as an authentic item. I don't think any Chinese could have written these characters.
