Republic Chang Tso-lin silver Fantasy Imitative "Mukden Tiger" Dollar Year 17 (1928) AU55 NGC, cf. KM-Pn90 (for original Pattern), cf. L&M-871 (same), Shi-44. An inspiring imitative type from a series that has gained immense popularity of recent, where pieces were possibly struck specifically for collectors when the original issues were prohibitive difficult to acquire. The current representative, while convincing to many, clearly shows design deviation, notably to the rendering of Tso-lin's portrait and the "E" in "ONE." While deserving of its borderline Mint State conditional assignment, the piece faces up especially fine, bolstered by a tangerine hue throughout, and will surely be among the top targets for Fantasy collectors in this auction.
