(t) CHINA. Taiwan. Fantasy "Old Man" Silver Dollar, ND (ca. late 19th Century). NGC MS-62.
L&M-Unlisted; cf. K-B5 (unbearded); KMX-365; WS-1349-56. Stunning quality for this "God of Longevity" (quite possibly meant to be Confucius) issue, this VERY RARE type offers a great strike with well executed features and a deep and attractive cabinet tone. Meanwhile, underlying brilliance radiates throughout.
Estimate: $7000 - $10000
