Chihli. Kuang-hsü Dollar Year 34 (1908) XF Details (Cleaned) PCGS, Pei Yang Arsenal mint, KM-Y73.2, L&M-465. Small letters, double-die obverse variety. Apparently the first time we've handled this seldom-seen variety, notable for the doubling to the obverse letters. While the surfaces reveal wisps consistent with the conditional qualifier and green residue, the piece has retoned to a pleasing steely hue.
