(t) CHINA. Sinkiang. Tenge (5 Fen), AH 1291 (1874/5). Kashgar (Shufu) Mint. Yakub Beg (in the name of Abdulaziz). PCGS MS-61.
L&M-670; KM-C-37-1.1; cf. WS-1152-54; SGSC-26 (this coin illustrated). Rebel coinage. Type with Aziz above Abd. Surpassed in the PCGS census by just a single example, this impressive Mint State fractional issue is bright and brilliant, with just some mild off-centering of strike.

Accordingly, any client who wishes to take delivery of this item within the United States will be subject to a 7.5% import tariff plus a processing fee of 0.3464% (minimum $31.67 / maximum $614.35). Please note, this is not, and is not intended to be, a complete description of the applicable import tariffs and buyer remains fully liable for and agrees to promptly pay all tariffs and fees relating to the import of these items into the United States and neither the auctioneer nor any consignor will have any responsibility to pay any applicable tariffs or fees. Please consult your tax adviser with any questions.
