UPDATE:Sorry, apparently according to my wife, this belonged to her great grandfather. The fact that it was covered in earth made me think it was one of my purchases from a metal detectorist some time ago but she assures me it is hers and brought back in a knapsack from the far east after WW2. Hope this helps. My friend said it looked like liu hai but I don't know?
