CHINA. Sinkiang. 5 Mace (Miscals), Year 1 (1912). PCGS MS-61.
L&M-836; K-1254; KM-Y-41; WS-1313. Variety with two floral patterns (arabesques) on banners. Ever a somewhat crudely produced type, this entrancing minor nevertheless presents Mint State quality that is seldom encountered. Rather appropriately, PCGS has graded just three finer.
From the Hobart Collection.
Estimate: $2000 - $4000
