(t) CHINA. Chihli (Pei Yang). 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 26 (1900). Tientsin (East Arsenal) Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS AU-58+.
L&M-459; K-201; KM-Y-73; WS-0629. Sporting a mostly even gunmetal gray tone, this near-Mint specimen emanates from a pivotal period in Chinese history, with the backdrop of the Boxer Rebellion occurring around the time of its manufacture. Not often encountered in such an elite level of preservation, it exhibits just a slight degree of cabinet friction upon the characters side, accounting for its status as falling just short of Mint State. Nevertheless, a VERY RARE and important opportunity.
北洋二十六年造光緒元寶七錢二分銀幣。天津鑄幣廠。
均勻砲銅灰包漿,近原廠品相,鑄製當下中國正經歷義和團運動。完好品相令人驚喜,字面僅些許窯藏磨擦,致未能得原廠評分。極罕入手良機。
