(t) CHINA. Copper Cash Pattern, ND (1910). Hsuan-t'ung (Xuantong [Puyi]). PCGS SPECIMEN-63 Brown.
CL-HB.84; cf. KM-267 (unlisted in copper); CCC-631; Duan-2499. A wonderful, fully choice specimen of the EXCEEDINGLY RARE pattern from near the end of the Qing Dynasty, this diminutive specimen provides an extremely sharp strike and smooth, glossy chocolate brown surfaces. Some brighter areas of red peer through occasionally, giving the surfaces nice contrast. A few green spots likely prevent a higher grade, as this example is not heavily marred. This beauty undoubtedly proves to be an example that is certain to appeal to the most advanced collectors of imperial types and Cash in general.
Estimate: $10000 - $15000
