Description

CHINA. Dollar, Year 21 (1932). NGC MS-61.
L&M-108; K-622; KM-Y-344; WS-0144. Birds over Junk variety. Lustrous with peripheral toning. A luster graze under Sun's chin and a few nicks limit the grade. The Illustrated Catalog of Chines Gold & Silver Coins comments that this coin was withdrawn not because of the birds but because the rising sun was seen as a reference to the invader Japan.
Estimate: $4000.00- $6000.00

民國二十一年孫中山像帆船壹圓銀幣。
三鳥。邊緣處有包漿,光澤亮麗。孫中山下巴有一處擦痕,還有些許劃痕,使得評級較為保守。 《中國金銀幣目錄》評論道,該幣被撤下不是因為鳥的圖案,而是因為旭日被視作日本侵略者的象徵。 On September 1, 2019, the United States enacted new tariffs on collector's items manufactured in China. Accordingly, all buyers in forthcoming Stack's Bowers and Ponterio Hong Kong Auctions who wish to have any Chinese manufactured item delivered within the United States will be subject to these tariffs. Furthermore, as a result of the new tariffs, all orders will be shipped directly from our Hong Kong offices and shipments to the United States will be subject to our international shipping chart.
