Description

Qing Dynasty. Wen Zong (Xian Feng) 50 Cash ND (1853-1855) XF, Fuzhou mint (Fukien Province), Hartill-22.795. 56mm. 89.18gm. An impressively sizable Imperial issue witnessed in an appreciable state of preservation, resulting in crisply defined characters, deep recessed fields, and only the occasional stray rim ding. While some minor casting issues are present to the raised edges the piece at hand remains a desirable large issue from a chaotic period of inflation and devaluation. This lot can be submitted to Gong Bo Grading for certification after the auction at the buyer's request. If you would like to utilize this option, please contact HK@HA.com.
