(t) CHINA. Gold Presentation Dollar, Year 10 (1921). Tientsin Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-64.
L&M-1125; K-1570a; KM-Pn66; WS-0082; Wenchao-59 (rarity 3 stars). Variety with reeded edge and without lower legend on reverse. Obverse: President Hsu Shih-chang facing slightly left in formal attire; Reverse: Pavilion at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, without legend at the bottom. An incredible companion piece to the example with the lower legend on the reverse (and, rather conveniently, also a PCGS SPECIMEN-64), this stunning near-Gem radiates with immense lustrous brilliance and smooth, matte-like fields. The surfaces overall are on the verge of being impeccable, and it remains highly unlikely that one will encounter another piece to rival this specimen. Accordingly, the finer of just two certified by PCGS, and by a full two points. Worthy of close, in hand inspection and immense adoration, this piece will not disappoint and should generate tremendous desire and enthusiasm.
Estimate: $500000 - $750000
