Description

Kansu. Republic Sun Yat-sen Dollar Year 17 (1928) AU Details (Cleaned) NGC, Lanzhou mint, KM-Y410, L&M-618, Kann-760, WS-0720, Wenchao-1034 (rarity 3 stars). Issued under Feng Yu Hsiang. One of a mere two collectible silver Dollar types from Kansu Province, and by far the rarer of the two, with the Sun Yat-sen pieces both occurring with far greater infrequency on the auction market than their Yuan Shih-kai counterparts, as well as generally proving more desirable among collectors. Wholly argent appearances abound, and while lightly tempered by hairlines confirming NGC's modifier, a fate bestowed to most of this type, this ultimately does little to detract from the absolute rarity and desirability of this coveted Kansu type.
