(t) CHINA. Kiangnan. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), CD (1905). PCGS MS-65.
L&M-262; K-106; KM-Y-145a.17; WS-0862. Variety with inverted "SY" initials. A wholly unrivaled example, this tremendously alluring and enchanting specimen stands atop the PCGS census, being the sole finest certified out of over 200 such pieces seen for the date. Cartwheel luster entices as the crown is cradled back and forth, while an attractive tone is composed of hues of gunmetal gray, olive, and champagne. For the connoisseur who demands only the best, this example is clearly the choice, and one which should generate record-breaking levels.
