CHINA. Kiangnan. 3.6 Candareens (5 Cents), ND (1897). PCGS AU-58.
L&M-214B; K-70a; KM-Y-141; WS-0793. Circled Dragon variety. Softly toned with strong luster and only the slightest wear atop the designs. Similar to several other examples that we've offered, significant die cracks appear near the "C" in "CANDAREENS", the first "N" in KIANG NAN" and the "R" in "PROVINCE". As a type, rather elusive, and bordering on RARE in this quality.
Estimate: $5000 - $10000
