(t) CHINA. Kirin. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), CD (1903). Kirin Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). NGC MS-61.
L&M-547; K-468; KM-Y-183a.2; WS-0465. Variety with dragon's left claw not touching cloud. Quite entrancing and brilliant, this fully argent and frosty Dollar radiates with a supremely untoned nature and great brilliance shimmering throughout. Just a hint of peripheral striking weakness is noted on the characters side, and likely is the aspect that prevents an even higher designation, but that is little concern, as the overall quality presented here is undoubtedly RARE for the type.
Estimate: $20000 - $30000
