CHINA. Colonists' Centennial of Peruvian Independence Silver Medal, 1921. NGC MS-63.
L&M-997. Produced for and issued by Chinese immigrants in Peru in observance of the 100th anniversary of Peruvian independence from colonial Spain. Obverse features conjoined arms of China and Peru, and it is interesting to note that the Chinese coat of arms overlaps the Peruvian coat of arms, even though the medal was struck at the Lima mint by Peruvians in observance of the Peruvian centennial. The Chinese heraldic symbols include a rampant dragon and peacock. Sharply struck, proof like, fully brilliant and highly attractive. NGC MS-63.
Estimate: $700.00- $1000.00
