(t) CHINA. Fukien. 20 Cents, ND (1923). PCGS MS-65.
L&M-305; K-706; KM-Y-381.3; WS-1047. Tied for second finest with one other example on the PCGS population report, only one finer (MS 65+). This lovely Gem boasts a bold strike exhibiting smooth satiny surfaces with nice cartwheel luster that pops out when rotated in the light. Pervasive smoky gray tone on both sides is complemented by areas of rich sunset hued iridescent patina adding to its pleasing appearance. This wholly original looking survivor was clearly given great care and offers great eye appeal.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
