Sinkiang. Republic Sar (Tael) Year 6 (1917) AU55 NGC, Tihwa mint, KM-Y45, L&M-837. Rosette at top variety. Despite a pronounced weakness of strike in the right field, commonly associated with these provincial Sinkiang issues, this treasure, with practically no instances of wear, is awash in golden overtones tempered with plentiful originality witnessed towards the peripheries.
