Description

(t) CHINA. Kiangnan. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), CD (1904)-HAH TH. Nanking Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS MS-63.

L&M-256; K-102; KM-Y-145a.16; WS-0855/6. This handsomely choice piece is exceptionally dazzling and altogether alluring with a frosty nature that deflects light in a wholesome display. Tied with just two other examples, this piece stands atop the PCGS population report, confirming just how RARE such a specimen is in this condition. For completeness, a flan flaw on the obverse noted, though this does very little to efface the beauty of this example and, similarly, its desirability.

Estimate: USD 30000-50000
