(t) CHINA. Chihli (Pei Yang). 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 34 (1908). Tientsin (Central) Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS MS-61.
L&M-465; cf. K-208 (for type); KM-Y-73.2; WS-0642. Frozen date issue with plain 4. This handsome example provides a wonderous luster that sheens in a pretty cartwheeling display that is relatively unbroken by contact. A watercolor patchwork of toning is presented on the surfaces, that elevates the eye appeal of this piece quite considerably. Some friction, consistent for the grade, is noted, though this friction does little to distract from the beauty of this specimen.
Estimate: $4000 - $6000
