Description

CHINA. Shanghai. French Concession. 5 Cents Omnibus Token, ND (1939-43). PCGS MS-62.
cf. Lec-1A. An EXTREMELY RARE token, struck in aluminum for the China General Omnibus Co. Ltd. This particular denomination is not listed in Lecompte, though other denominations are shown with the same design. This fabulous near-Choice example features bold, brilliant surfaces and crisp design elements. Only the lightest of marks appear, which speaks to the token's remarkable level of preservation. A highly engaging piece for any specialist in the series.

1939-43年上海法租界统一伍分代用幣。
極為罕見,由中國公共汽車公司用鋁鑄而成。此面值未獲Lecompte目錄收錄,但其他面值的代用幣亦展現相同的設計。幣面圖文清晰,光澤亮麗,僅見輕微痕跡,表保存完好。对於任何研究此系列的專家而言,均為不可多得的藏品。

Estimate: $600.00 - $1000.00
