(t) CHINA. Sinkiang. 5 Mace (Miscals), AH 1329 (1911). Kashgar (Shufu) Mint. Hsuan-t'ung (Xuantong [Puyi]). PCGS VF-35.
L&M-760; K-1147; KM-Y-A28.3; WS-1242; SGSC-134-5 (this coin illustrated). Type with two characters and complex "wu". Amber-gray in hue, this example offers a great rendition of the dragon, which is essentially composed of annulets and stars in its body-- the stars being spaced enough apart to convey this aspect.
