77.93

Precious and rare (珍奇): The upper character is [read with the fanqie] 窒隣. The Shuowen jiezi says it takes 玉 as radical and 㐱 as phonetic. In the register it is written as 殄, which is incorrect. The lower character is [read with the fanqie] 妓冝. The Shuowen jiezi says: '奇 means extraordinary; it takes 大 and 可.' In the register it is written as 琦, the name of a jade; the meanings are closely related.
