CHINA. Dollar, ND (1916). NGC MS-61.
L&M-942; K-663; KM-Y-332; Hsu-16; WS-0097. The popular and RARE issue featuring Yuan Shih-kai as the Hung Hsien emperor, this issue offers a military bust of this brief dynast in a tall, plumed shako. The reverse is just as captivating, with an imperial dragon trotting left rather than in its usual coiled position. Quite lustrous and glistening, with a good deal of brilliance and some burnished golden toning around the devices.
Estimate: $18000.00- $24000.00
