CHINA. Brass Medal, ND (ca. 1916). PCGS Genuine--Tooled, AU Details Gold Shield.
CCC-717. An enigmatic issue, bearing the bust of Yen Shi-San. This example more closely resembles the plate specimen in Chinese Copper Coins than the prior two we have offered (Hong Kong, August 2011, lot 70454, and Hong Kong, April 2012, lot 20436), which were struck in copper from cruder dies. The tooling refers to a small set of scratches near an inked "(29)" in the right obverse field.
Ex: Li Wei Xian Collection.
Estimate: $1500.00- $2000.00
