Cordyceps sinensis (Ophiocordyceps sinensis) is a medicinal fungus formed when the larva of the ghost moth is parasitized by a fungus. Its main production areas include high-altitude regions such as Yushu in Qinghai, Golog in Qinghai, Nagqu in Tibet, Garzê and Ngawa in Sichuan, and Shangri-La in Yunnan. Tibetan Nagqu Cordyceps is considered the top representative and is graded by quality (fullness of the worm body, length of the stem, and percentage of double worms). The top-grade "Super King" can reach HK$250,000 – 400,000 per catty.

Key Points for Cordyceps Valuation

  1. "Pieces per catty" grading: The fewer cordyceps per catty (i.e., larger individual cordyceps), the higher the value; 1,800 pieces per catty is considered "Super King" grade.
  2. Origin identification: Tibetan Nagqu cordyceps are golden yellow, plump, and have short stems; Yunnan products are darker in color and have thinner bodies.
  3. Authenticity identification: High-imitation cordyceps are common (e.g., "Asian Cordyceps," "bamboo skewers for weight," "wax for imitation"), requiring authentication by experienced experts.
  4. Storage conditions: Must be dry, protected from light, free from pests, and without any rancid odor.

Quick Answer: How to Estimate the Value of These Items?

Cordyceps buyback valuation considers origin, number of pieces, dryness, color, proportion of broken pieces, weight, and packaging source. Original boxes, receipts, or traditional Chinese medicine shop labels can help with valuation; loose cordyceps require clear close-up photos and total weight.

Origin and number of pieces Different origins, thickness, integrity, and number of pieces per tael will affect the value.
Storage condition Moisture, musty smell, excessive breakage, or mixing with other medicinal materials will reduce the buyback price.
Source and Weight Original box, label, invoice, and actual weight must be provided together.

Common FAQs

What are the requirements for Cordyceps sinensis buyback?

We require complete, natural Cordyceps sinensis, including both the insect and the stroma. Broken cordyceps are less valuable. We quote based on size, completeness, and grade, with larger pieces being more valuable.

How do you distinguish authentic Cordyceps sinensis from fakes?

Authentic cordyceps have distinct annulations on the insect body and a milky white V-shaped pattern on the cross-section. Counterfeits are often made from starch molds or are substituted with different species. We have experienced appraisers to ensure authenticity.

How long does Cordyceps sinensis retain its value in storage?

Dried cordyceps can be stored for many years if sealed. However, cordyceps that are damp, moldy, insect-ridden, or discolored will significantly decrease in value. We recommend storing them sealed with a desiccant.

How do I contact you to sell Cordyceps sinensis?
