CHINA. Dollar, Year 3 (1911). NGC MS-62.
L&M-36; K-227a; Y-31.1; WS-0046a. (Wrong attribution numbers on NGC label). Dot after "DOLLAR". A lustrous monumental example of the issue, fully original and RARE as such. With most of the few surviving examples having problems (sometimes serious problems) the opportunity to acquire a straight graded piece at this mid-level uncirculated grade is nothing short of a special occasion. A glorious white coin with virtually no tone aside from the recessed areas of the reeding. A few very light marks confined to the reverse fields, with the obverse exceeding most requirements of the next higher grade. With impaired versions of the coin typically seeing furious bidding at auction, the piece offered here should provide quite a spectacle as it crosses the auction block. Bid early to secure your best chance of landing this sensational late Qing Empire coin. NGC MS-62.
Estimate: $10000.00- $15000.00
