(t) CHINA. Silver Dollar Pattern, Year 18 (1929). Hangchow Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-58.
L&M-94; K-615; KM-Pn99; WS-0138; Chang-CH196; Wenchao-909 (rarity: ★★). English design from London Mint dies. The enticing design created from the hand of Langford Jones, this alluring pattern issue presents a fairly stormy nature to the seas, with wave in the foreground almost taking the form of a hand emerging from the waters. Ever-so-slightly handled, and with just a hint of wear upon the highest points, this brilliant and VERY RARE example presents captivating luster and a high degree of radiance. So slight is any evidence of rub that intense nature of the die polishing is still rather pronounced, attesting to its preserved status.
Estimate: $15000 - $20000
