Kuang-hsü Mint Error - Struck 90% Off Center 20 Cash ND (c. 1905) AU55 Brown NGC, While almost no features of the coin are struck on the planchet, the English letters "TI-K" are left at the upper margin, identifying this piece as one of the numerous "TAI-CHING-TI-KUO" types prevalent as a provincial issue around 1905. While some examples of off-center strikes have been located for this type, never are they as dramatic, and certainly a worthy survivor primed for the error collector of the Chinese series.
