民國十七年貴州省政府造壹圓銀幣。汽車幣。
兩根草。為了紀念貴州高速公路建成而鑄,上面的汽車則是周西成自己的座駕。NGC標註久經清洗,因此較為光亮,不過圖文間光澤猶存。經久不衰的版別,定能引起激烈競投。 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.
