Description

CHINA. Taiwan. Copper-Nickel 10 Cents "Sample" (Pattern), ND (possibly ca. late 1960s). Central Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-65 Gold Shield.
27 mm. KMX-1160 var. Obverse: Angled view of Chih Kan Tower; Reverse: two lines of vertical characters, symbols at right. Edge: Reeded. Presumably struck to commemorate the completed restoration of the Chih Kan Tower, which was originally constructed in the 17th century. A RARE issue, struck using the same obverse die as KMX-1160, but paired with a different reverse. The first we have seen.
Estimate: $600.00- $800.00

1960年後期台灣中華民國中央造幣廠壹角銅鎳樣幣。
正面:赤崁樓斜視圖;反面:兩列垂直字符,右邊有符號;齒邊。為紀念原建於十七世紀的赤崁樓修復完成。稀罕,正面使用與KMX-1160相同的模具鑄打,但混配另一反面。我們首次遇到這樣的藏品,饒有趣味。 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.
