cf.L&M-345; cf.K-145; KM-Pn15; cf.WS-0732; Zhang-pg. 09. VERY RARE. Brass. Generally even coloration with minor deposits along the reverse legends, and near complete details through the dragon's scales. We were unable to conclusively identify the source of the "Filed Rims" attribution; whatever damage exists presumably is fairly minor. All things considered, a very presentable example of this highly prized pattern struck in brass. PCGS Genuine--Filed Rims, AU Details Secure Holder.
