Kirin. Kuang-hsü "Flower Basket" 20 Cents CD 1907 MS62 PCGS, Kirin mint, KM-Y181, L&M-569, Kann-554. A type that is seldom seen crossing the auction block despite the high number of certified examples, and almost never encountered in Mint State. Icy, argent fields host the "immortality greens" within the flower basket design, for which these issues are most known. Despite the reverse embossed with a surprisingly weak dragon, the example at hand is wholly appreciable and worthy of premium bids.
