Fengtien. Kuang-hsü Dollar Year 24 (1898) AU Details (Cleaned) NGC, Fengtien Machine Factory mint, KM-Y87, L&M-471, Kann-244, Chang-CH90. A classically elusive Dragon Dollar type that is rarely locatable outside of Details grades, usually for chopmarking or cleaning. Though admittedly lightly cleaned long ago, this if anything has merely muted the coin's luster, its visual appearance on the whole quite strong and bolstered by a definitive strike.
