China
Republic Yuan Shih-kai Dollar Year 3 (1914)-O AU50 PCGS, KM-Y329.4, L&M-63C, Kann-648. Double die obverse variety with O in left loop of ribbon and Yuan not connected. Attractively patinated, with a mottling of steel-blue color that dresses the entirety of the fields on the obverse and reverse alike. Though subtle, the noted doubling to the obverse can be most clearly observed around Yuan Shih-kai's chin, ear, and the stars on his epaulette. Lesser-seen as a variety.
