Republic Yuan Shih-kai "Plumed Hat" Dollar Year 3 (1914) MS64 NGC, Tientsin mint, KM-Y322, L&M-858, Kann-642. Frosty and sharp, this superior selection reveals clear surfaces displaying argent luster, with icy accents contained within the smaller crevices of the devices. A planchet flaw can be seen extending into the right side of Yuan Shih-kai's figure on the obverse, though fortunately remains of minimal consequence to eye appeal, the overall impression remaining one of sensational and memorable quality.
