Description

Other

CHINA. Brass 700 Yuan Pattern, 1981. NGC PROOF-68 Ultra Cameo.

KM-Unlisted. Diameter: 33mm. Bronze Age Discoveries. Type I. Changxin court lantern. An EXTREMELY RARE and quite possibly UNIQUE pattern issue that emanates from a remarkable series of such patterns that we are offering for the first time. This represents the only such example seen at NGC, with none having been seen at PCGS. This design was ultimately selected for the silver 5 Yuan type struck in 1992 [series 2] (KM-460). Exceptionally vibrant and radiant, this captivating example is largely free of any blemishes--a few lightly scattered spots on the obverse being all that stands in the way of an even higher designation.

Estimate: $ 9000.00 - 12000.00

1981年700元。黃銅樣幣。長信宮燈。

33mm。青銅器出土文物。I 版。長信宮燈。 極罕 版別, 獨一無二 的樣幣版。我們首次上拍此非凡系列。NGC 僅鑑定過此枚,PCGS 無記錄。此設計最終被 1992 年 5 元銀幣 (系列 2) 採用。奪目耀眼,除正面有零星斑點,以致其更高評分失之交臂。近完美無瑕的品相。
