Sinkiang. Kuang-hsü 5 Miscals (Mace) ND (1910) AU55 NGC, KM-Y6.6, cf. L&M-819A (different dragon, larger rosettes), Kann-1015 (1905), Hsien-Chang-210. Type with circle around dragon and 8-petalled flower on obverse (reverse as holdered). Admirable condition for this lesser-seen issue, a smattering of scattered contact in the fields likely accounting for the designation more than serious circulation wear. Bold concentric machining marks are visible upon close inspection even without magnification, creating a very pleasing appearance.
