China
Tibet. Theocracy Srang BE 15-43 (1909) AU50 PCGS, Dode mint, KM-Y12, L&M-656, WS-0283. A visually satisfying issue enveloped by a most pleasing, mellow golden tone highlighting cerulean-tinged devices and limited by only the faintest evidence of handling seen to the body of the central lion. One of the more attractive specimens of this type and elusive in any grade, let alone approaching Mint State preservation. Likely to appeal to advanced collectors of this series, taking into consideration its superior eye appeal.
