Chihli. Kuang-hsü Dollar Year 34 (1908) XF45 PCGS, Pei Yang Arsenal mint, KM-Y73.2, L&M-465, Kann-208. Long central spine on tail, cloud separated variety. Extremely popular in this only lightly handled state, with most pieces having come down to the present day damaged or cleaned. A subtle underlying shimmer can still be detected over both sides, adding a degree of eye appeal lesser-encountered in this technical preservation.
