China
Tibet. Theocracy 1/2 Rupee ND (1904-1912) AU55 NGC, KM-Y2, L&M-361. Well-struck and preserved subsequent to brief circulation, this scarce emission demonstrates only slight flatness atop the highest points but otherwise strong detail in the hair, clothing, and cap. Deep cabinet tone is seen on the obverse, the reverse expressing a variety of soft autumnal hues.
