CHINA. Dollar, ND (1923). Tientsin Mint. PCGS Genuine--Scratch, Unc Details.
L&M-959; K-678 = KM; WS-0105. Tsao Kun in military attire/Proclamation of the Constitution commemorative. Highly reflective and sharply detail, this charming beauty provides seemly endless luster and exceptional striking quality. A small scratch on the forehead of Tsao accounts for the designation, but this flaw should been seen as an opportunity to acquire a strong example for a more attainable price. Handsome and light almond toning is most strongly accounted for at the peripheries, with the argent nature of the piece at all times shining through. Some friction is noted along with a fingerprint mark, though, like the scratch, merely attest to a rich backstory this piece would assuredly tell if it could talk.
Estimate: $10000 - $15000
