China
Republic Yuan Shih-kai Dollar Year 9 (1920) MS62 NGC, KM-Y329.6, L&M-77, Kann-666. Nien not connected, fine hair variety. An even gunmetal patination pervades this near-choice Yuan Shih-kai Dollar, notable for the quality of engraving evident in the sitter's portraiture. An ever-popular series laden with original surfaces and satiny fields, obscured only by light but unobtrusive marks and residue.
