CHINA. Yunnan. 3 Mace 6 Candareens (50 Cents), ND (1916). Kunming Mint. PCGS MS-63.
L&M-862; K-674; KM-Y-480; WS-0693. Commemorative type featuring a side view of General T'ang Chi-yao, this charming beauty--doused with much originality--is coated in a rich patination of rainbow toning of a mostly plum hue. The smooth surfaces give just a hint of the underlying luster, and the subtle charm is only occasionally interrupted by a stray contact. Attached to the Irving Goodman collection, the premier piece has nearly everything one could want, with a great history and entrancing beauty.

Estimate: $20000 - $30000
