Description

BURMA. 2 Mu 1 Pe (1/4 Mohur), CS 1228 (1866). Mandalay Mint. Mindon. NGC AU Details--Damaged.
Fr-4; KM-20. On of the single RAREST Burmese issues, this most unusual denomination appears to have been produced with dies made in Calcutta and is somewhat of an enigma. Only a small number were produced, almost all of which show usage in jewelry inclusive of this piece with the noted damage. This piece is yet well detailed, with commendable and nearly unhandled details, with much presentability and charm throughout.
Ex: Than Htun Collection.

1866年緬甸半獅半龍2 Mu 1 Pe金幣。
最罕見的緬甸版別之一。此特殊面值似是使用加爾各答的模具而鑄,令人不解。生產量極少,幾乎全都用作珠寶首飾,本拍品也難逃此命運,亦因此可見損傷。細節仍佳,幾乎未有精手痕跡,值得讚嘆。

Estimate: $4000.00 - $6000.00
