Kirin. Kuang-hsu "Flower Basket" 50 Cents CD 1900 MS61 NGC, KM-Y182.3, L&M-532, Kann-401. CANIARINES error. Sparkling white luster fills the centers, while light copper-golden tone has settled around portions of the peripheries. Highly unusual quality for the issue and a very rare variety that shows CANDARINES misspelled as CANIARINES. While the variety is detailed in Kann's extensive work, a search of modern auction records yields no other offerings; making our estimate no more than a guess that we could see being easily surpassed. A coin that should excite the specialist!
