(t) CHINA. Szechuan-Tibet. Rupee, ND (1902-11). Chengdu Mint. NGC AU Details--Cleaned.
L&M-358; K-588; KM-Y-3.1; cf. WS-0754-2. Variety with no collar, horizontal rosette, and hollow 'gourd-shaped' leaf. Dramatic dark gray in color with some iridescence, likely from the cleaning some time ago. Overall, still a handsome survivor of this popular Tibetan issue and worthy of a strong bid.
