(t) CHINA. Szechuan. Dollar, Year 1 (1912). Uncertain Mint, likely Chengdu or Chungking. PCGS AU-55.
L&M-366; cf. K-775 (for type); KM-Y-456; WS-0778. Variety with short stroke on "jin". Exceptionally original and enticing, this barely handled example offers a strong strike and largely untoned surfaces that present a great deal of shimmering luster.
Estimate: $900 - $1300
