CHINA. Tibet. Sho, ND (1910). PCGS AU-58 Gold Shield.
L&M-653; K-1478; KM-Y-5; WS-0234. Tied for third finest certified with three other examples on the PCGS population report, only three finer (MS 62[2] and MS 64[1]). Quite the difficult issue to find problem free let alone in this high state of preservation, the typical crude manufacture with shallow die engraving and uneven striking usually give the appearance of significant circulation. This lovely minor silver coin exhibits a decent strike for this type displaying lovely soft gray patina with areas of richer coloration adding to its pleasing appearance sure to be a welcome addition to the next collection it enters.
Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
