(t) CHINA. Dollar, ND (1912). Nanking Mint. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, Unc Details.
L&M-42; K-603; KM-Y-319; WS-0085. Low five-pointed stars variety. An exceedingly popular and much more SCARCE type than the later, highly related high six-pointed stars "Memento" type. This specimen offers robust and rich details from the crisp strike. Some light hairlines can been seen, but most evidence of the noted cleaning is hidden by the attractive layer of pastel toning. A handsome example despite the cleaning and, therefore, quite likely to receive spirited bidding.
Estimate: $7000 - $10000
