98.87

Jade-like stone and fine jade: 珉 [min] (upper character: 密 + 彬 fanqie. Zheng [Xuan's] commentary on the Liji says: "'Min' is a stone resembling jade." It is also written as [(王*民)/月]. The collection writing it with radical 目 'eye' as 眠 is an error); 瑤 [yao] (lower character: 曜 + 昭 fanqie. The Mao commentary on the Shijing says: "'Yao' is fine jade." The Shuowen jiezi says: "A beautiful stone." The collection writing it with 𮔀 as 𤨚, pronounced 側 + 絞 fanqie, is an erroneous character).
