The current jade belongs to an existing group of related plaques which imitate Han dynasty examples of this same shape, either with the characters, yi zi sun, 'For the benefit of sons and grandsons', or yi shou, 'For the benefit of Longevity'. An Eastern Han plaque inscribed with the yi shou characters is in the Palace Museum in Beijing, illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum - Jadewares (I), Hong Kong, 1995, pp. 258-259, no. 216.
