(t) CHINA. Kwangtung. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), ND (1909-11). Kwangtung Mint. Hsuan-t'ung (Xuantong [Puyi]). PCGS AU-58.
L&M-138; K-31; KM-Y-206; WS-0950. Rather entrancing in this grade, the present example offers a wholesome and original mint sheen and nearly brims over with luster. The details are sharply applied, with very little evidence of actual rub on the devices. Some light marking and friction is noted, likely withholding this example from Mint State status, but altogether this specimen is encountered in far nicer shape than most of this type.
Estimate: $2500 - $3500
