CHINA. Fantasy Dollar, Year 1 (1916). PCGS MS-63 Secure Holder.
K-B48; Bruce-1390. Yuan Shih-kai as Hung Hsien on horseback. Easily one of the finest extant, most examples seen exhibit impairments of one sort or another, with the few surviving original examples coming nowhere near the quality seen here. Extremely well struck with high relief characteristics to the horse and horseman. Light to medium tan tone with a fabulous aquamarine sheen surrounding the edges of the reverse devices and obverse rim. A coin that is certain to enhance the collection it enters and worthy of a solid bid. PCGS MS-63 Secure Holder.
