CHINA. Tibet. Date Run of 2-1/2 Skar (3 Pieces), 1918-1921. Dode Mint. All NGC or PCGS certified.
A to chance to acquire a complete date set of a three year type. Though the 1921 has a details designation of "Edge Damage" we are hard pressed to locate said damage. The only area which we observe that might be considered for this designation is where the dies were misaligned at the time of striking which caused a raised portion to protrude on the reverse. Since these type were not struck with a collar being struck with misaligned dies is a common occurrence. A wholesome gathering of SCARCE types perfect for the intermediate collector looking to fill out their collection.
