Tibet. Theocracy 3 Srang BE 16-8 (1934) MS63 NGC, Tapchi mint, KM-Y25, L&M-659, WS-0318, YZM-502. Variety with 8-tailed lion. A thoroughly impressive survivor for this very conditionally sensitive type, the issue often encountered cleaned or well-circulated. Bested by just 8 MS64-graded examples between NGC and PCGS combined, the offering retains fully choice luster across its fields, an especially satin finish preserved along the devices, lending a noticeably mint-fresh finish to the piece.
