Fengtien. Kuang-hsü Dollar CD 1903 AU Details (Cleaned) PCGS, Fengtien Arsenal mint, KM-Y92, L&M-483, Kann-251b, Chang-CH93, WS-0598, Wenchao-783 (rarity 3 stars). Variety with the Manchu characters in the center of the obverse (reverse as holdered) reversed to read "Fung-Boo." The first Dragon Dollar issue of Fengtien to conform to the "standard layout" of the Provincial Dollars (featuring the Emperor's reign period, as well as English legends around the Dragon), and one of the more challenging emissions within the series. While a light hairlining over the surfaces can be detected in-line with the "cleaned" designation, the coin on the whole retains plentiful eye appeal and minimal high-point friction.
