China
Republic Yuan Shih-kai gold Dollar ND (1916) MS63 NGC, Kann-1560, L&M-1114, KM-Pn44. Obv. 3/4 facing bust of Yuan Shih-kai. Rev. Winged dragon flying left. The strike is bold and the surfaces bright with lustrous, greenish-gold patina. A few tiny contact marks are noted, but none are singularly significant. Excellent eye-appeal and one of the most coveted issues of the early Republic era!
