CHINA. Silver Dollar Pattern, Year 18 (1929). Hangchow Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-63.
L&M-97; K-617; KM-Pn101; WS-0135-1; Chang-CH193; Wenchao-912 (rarity: ★★). Austrian Design from Vienna Mint dies. This handsome Specimen offers pleasing and specially struck surfaces that are inhered with just a hint of amber toning. Evidence of polishing of the dies--which were imported directly from the Vienna Mint--is visible under magnification of the fields, with a wholesome but somewhat matted sheen. Even still, this choice beauty wows with dazzling charm and, given its place near the pinnacle of desirability for all Chinese issues, fierce competition should be expected to be the winning paddle of this exceptional RARITY.
Estimate: $100000 - $150000
