CHINA. Anhwei. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 24 (1898). PCGS MS-64 Gold Shield.
L&M-203; K-53; KM-Y-45.5; WS-1080. Pop: 3, none graded finer by PCGS. VERY SCARCE type. Large rosettes, flat "Si" with rounded characters in the date. Coin is boldly struck with blazing mint luster in the fields and exhibits lovely almond tone around the edges. An outstanding representative of the type in near-Gem condition certain to see spirited bidding from collectors with a discerning eye. The piece offers great eye appeal for this normally worn, damaged and generally speaking contemporaneously unaccepted issue. A really treat for the specialist destined for a find cabinet of an advanced collector.
Estimate: $30000.00- $50000.00
