Chihli (Pei Yang Arsenal). Kuang-hsü Dollar Year 24 (1898) AU50 PCGS, KM-Y65.2, L&M-449. A handsome offering of this type, with light wear to the devices and appealing iridescent tone along the peripheries. A handful of surface marks, commensurate with a short period in circulation are noted but blend well into the toning.
Estimate: 1500-2000 USD
