China
Kiangnan. Kuang-hsü Dollar CD 1904 AU55 PCGS, Nanking mint, KM-Y145a.12, L&M-257, Kann-99. Variety with HAH and CH and fewer spines on dragon. Scarce preservation for the type, most examples that become available showing considerable handling if not outright cleaning or tooling. The obverse (reverse as holdered) reveals very minimal evidence of wear, suggesting perhaps a slightly higher grade could be left wanting.
