CHINA. Taiwan. Ju-I Military Ration "Lotus" Dollar, 1853. NGC EF Details--Chopmarked.
L&M-323; K-2; KM-C#25-4; Chang Foundation-pg. 50#19; Wenchao-pg. 172#178 (rarity three stars). Despite moderate wear, an exceptional example of this highly sought issue, possessing rich gray color over both sides and only a few insignificant chopmarks, compared to the multitude that usually accompany the issue. Because so few chops are present, the design detail remains rather bold, with full legibility of all the characters. An important coin as such, sure to enter a collection of seldom-rivaled distinction.
Ex: Lin G.M. Liu Yun Hung Collection.
Estimate: $15000.00- $30000.00
