CHINA. Dollar, ND (1914). Tientsin Mint. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, Unc Details.
L&M-858; K-642b; KM-Y-322.1; WS-0094. Diameter: 39.5mm; purportedly struck ca. 1918. Very light hairlines in the fields are the only thing that separate this piece from a premium grade. The surfaces are unhandled and the details are exceptionally sharp and crisp, testifying to how revered this piece was. Exceptionally pleasant and with an airy golden tone imbues this specimen with an added appeal to the eyes. This lot offers a remarkable chance at one of the most popular Chinese coins at potentially a discounted in price, but most assuredly not in beauty.
Estimate: $10000 - $20000
