(t) CHINA. Nickel 20 Cents Pattern, Year 24 (1935). Philadelphia Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-58.
KM-Pn144; K-831; Zhou-RC.9. Produced in Philadelphia for review by the Ministry of Finance, this RARE pattern displays a sharp and exacting strike with no real evidence of rub. A number of marks do appear on the surface, though these do not overly interrupt the luster. Quite likely kept as a pocket piece for a brief period, this example retains immense desirability on account of its pattern status and remaining strong charm. A premium example for the premium collector of Chinese.
Estimate: $7000 - $10000
