Kiau Chau. German Occupation Proof 5 Cents 1909 PR65 NGC, KM1, Kann-873. A wonderful and scarce Proof offering of this fascinating emission from the German trading port of Kiau Chau, just mere years prior to its capture by joint Japanese and British forces. The strike is clear and precise, the fields lightly reflective with hints of golden undertones. A pleasing representative of this gem example.
