CHINA. Anhwei. 10 Cash, ND (1902-06). PCGS Genuine--Environmental Damage, VF Details Secure Holder.
CL-AH.56; Duan-0623; CCC-61; W-42 (L-20); Y-Unlisted. Small letters in province name. EXTREMELY RARE. The noted defect of "Environmental Damage" is referring to hard encrustation amongst the devices and in the obverse field between 3 o'clock and 6 o'clock. When comparing to the other specimens plated in the reference material the present example is about average for the issue. All are either very worn or have signs of maltreatment. The survival rate of this issue seems to be quite dismal with examples coming to market very infrequently. Decent strike with wear consistent for the grade. Attractive mahogany and cinnamon patina on the obverse while the reverse displays mellow chocolate surfaces. Overall a presentable example of this elusive issue sure to excite the specialist. PCGS Genuine--Environmental Damage, VF Details Secure Holder.
