(t) CHINA. Chihli (Pei Yang). 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 34 (1908). Tientsin (Central) Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS Genuine--Scratch, AU Details.
L&M-465A; cf. K-209 (for type); KM-Y-73.3; WS-0643. Frozen date issue with plain 4. Variety with short cloud and tail. Were it not for the noted scratches resulting in the details designation, this enticing specimen would verge upon Mint State status given the paucity of handling and great deal of lustrous brilliance remaining in the fields. Meanwhile, a hint of olive toning accentuates the peripheries, adding further charm and eye appeal.
Estimate: $900 - $1300
