CHINA. Kirin. 10 Cash, ND (1903). PCGS EF-45 Secure Holder.
cf.CL-Mule KR.03 obv., KR.07 rev.; cf.Duan-1186; cf.CCC-480; Y-177.3. We were not able to match these specific dies to the reference material at our disposal with more than 150 different plated examples and as such presumably SCARCE to RARE. This is not surprising since the Kirin mint never adopted the master hub system and had to produce new dies every time a die broke or wore out. Well struck with moderate wear consistent for the grade with smooth milk chocolate in the open fields and atop of the devices while mocha hugs the devices. A wholesome example sure to please. PCGS EF-45 Secure Holder.
From the Q. David Bowers Collection.
Estimate: $100.00- $150.00
