Kiangnan. Kuang-hsü Dollar CD 1902 MS64 NGC, Nanking mint, KM-Y145a.8, L&M-247, Kann-93, Chang-CH78, WS-0844. Variety with HAH and slanted dot at the top of Yin. An altogether admirable representative, conditionally and visually-speaking, featuring an instantly recognizable reverse (obverse as holdered) toning pattern from this ex. Glorium Collection specimen. Awash in polychromatic tone that gently mutes what would otherwise be resounding mint brilliance, the piece on offer displays a paucity of distracting marks. Certified at the apex of both censuses, with none ranking finer for this more difficult date, we can only imagine where the hammer will drop when noticed by discerning collectors. Ex. Glorium Collection (Heritage Auction 3095, December 2021, Lot 34039) HID09801242017 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
