CHINA. Kiangnan. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), CD (1904). PCGS Genuine--Chopmark, AU Details.
L&M-258; K-101; KM-Y-145a.13; WS-0857. Variety with "HAH" and "CH," and with dots under "Chia" and "Chen". Blistering with gorgeous satiny luster from a planchet shaped by freshly polished dies, this eye-popping argent piece exhibits hints of olive-russet tone over its surfaces. Accepting the minute chopmark visible around 5 o'clock on the character side, this piece is emblematic of what is informally known as a "slider," an About Uncirculated piece with wear so difficult to detect that many experienced numismatists would consider it Mint State.
Estimate: $300 - $500
