(t) CHINA. Chihli (Pei Yang). 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 34 (1908). Tientsin (Central) Mint. NGC AU-53.
L&M-465; K-208; KM-Y-73.2; WS-0642. Variety with long middle tail spine and connected cloud. A hint of peripheral striking weakness is noted, fairly typical for the type, but this lightly handled, original survivor nevertheless retains a delightful argent nature and hints of brilliance in the protected areas.
Estimate: $1200 - $1500
