BMC-Class LXVI Group I. Weight: 181.92 gms. "Duo Wan Tai Hao Hui Hao Wen Yin" (Duowantai bank, remittance bank fine silver); "Gong Gu Tong She Duan Kan" (Inspected by public assayers Tong, She Duan). The two outer stamps are deeply applied, sharp and lustrous. The central stamp is clear with luster in the protected areas, but somewhat shallow muddling the most central portion of the characters. The assay stamp on the left is bold with nearly full complete characters while the stamp on the right has portions of the characters over the edge. Overall a beautiful example of the type with luster in the stamps, lovely multi-color patina and good eye appeal.
