CHINA. Dollar, ND (1912). Nanking Mint. PCGS MS-65+.
L&M-48; K-600; KM-Y-318; WS-0158. High five-pointed stars variety. The RARE version of the "Memento Dollars" featuring five pointed stars rather than six, this exceptionally beautiful and attractive Gem radiates with intense, vibrant color on each side. The central natures feature a gunmetal gray tone with hints of violet, while deeper hues--such as burgundy, cobalt, seafoam green, and goldenrod--appear as one approaches the peripheries. Compare to another example with a similar chromatic palette, a PCGS MS-64 that realized a total of $66,000 in our 2021 December CCO (Lot # 42106).
Estimate: $30000 - $50000
