(t) CHINA. Szechuan. Dollar, Year 1 (1912). Uncertain Mint, likely Chengdu or Chungking. PCGS MS-61.
L&M-366; cf. K-775 (for type); KM-Y-456; WS-0780. Variety with short stroke on "jin". Incredible quality for the type, this Mint State specimen is largely free from toning, with just a hint of golden champagne offering some color, and a good deal of shimmering brilliance emanating from the fields. A great example for the advanced collector of the provincial series.
Estimate: $2000 - $3000
