An attention-grabbing item is the plate with flower-and-bird pattern  made of fine silver with embossed, gold foil. The plate was unearthed from the Micang section of the ancient Shudao, the ancient post road to Sichuan. It is of great value to the study of the local culture, economic exchanges, and the development of the handicraft industry at the time.
