(t) CHINA. Yunnan. 3 Mace 6 Candareens (50 Cents), ND (1916). Kunming Mint. PCGS MS-64.
L&M-862; K-674; KM-Y-480; WS-0693. A SCARCE commemorative issue, especially so when offered in this high grade, the present example provides a crisp strike and surfaces mostly free of marking. A light tone besets this near-Gem specimen, and delicate luster still peeking through. Compare this piece with an example of this type likewise graded by PCGS as MS-64 that realized a total of $180,000 in our September 2021 Hong Kong auction (Lot # 23401). Given the popularity of the type, we remain optimistic that this example will command much attention and an intense flurry of bids.
Estimate: $30000 - $50000
