(t) CHINA. Sinkiang. 5 Fen (1/2 Miscal), ND (1878). Kashgar Mint. PCGS AU-55.

cf. L&M-677; K-1037g. Square without dot variety, different Manchu and Turki script. This EXTREMELY RARE variety seldom appears on the market and is only plated in Edward Kann's book, but not described. The strike is bold on a nearly round planchet displaying mottled gray tone with satiny surfaces and thin veneer of champagne tone. The attractive representative is sure to catch the attention of many advanced collectors seeking unusual numismatic relics.

Estimate: $700.00 - $1000.00

新疆光緒銀錢半錢（五分）。喀什造幣廠。

方中無點，不同的滿文和突厥文。這種極稀有版別鮮少面市，只曾出現在耿愛德的書中，但沒有描述。鑄工出色，坯餅近全圓，絲滑幣面呈現斑駁灰色包漿，一層香檳色的淺包漿。極具魅力的代表作，肯定會吸引許多罕見版別的資深收藏家的注意。
