(t) CHINA. Silver 50 Cents (1/2 Dollar) Pattern, ND (1910). Tientsin Mint. Hsuan-t'ung (Xuantong [Puyi]). PCGS MS-62.
L&M-25; K-220; KM-Y-23; WS-0037. VERY RARE and exceptionally enchanting, this alluring pattern issue exhibits mostly argent surfaces with some subtle almond toning and a great cartwheel nature throughout. Also rather enticing, it features slightly different dragon design than is generally encountered on the late imperial coinage of the Qing dynasty. Undoubtedly worthy of a superior cabinet, and assuredly a most welcome addition for the next collection in which it enters.
Estimate: $30000 - $45000
