(t) CHINA. Dollar, Year 3 (1914). PCGS Genuine--Environmental Damage, EF Details.
cf. L&M-63 (for prototype); cf. K-646 (same); cf. KM-Y-329 (same); cf. WS-0174-1 (same). "Military" or "Warlord" type. An attractive example of this crudely made rendition of the prolific 1914 issue commonly known as the "Military issue", mostly likely produced around 1930-33 by the Communist armies, exhibiting a decent strike with even wear. Some discoloration on the reverse in the lower right quadrant appears to account for the details designation, but is hardly a distraction.
Estimate: $900 - $1200
