(t) CHINA. 7.2 Candareens (10 Cent), ND (1908). Tientsin Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). NGC EF-45.
L&M-13; K-218; KM-Y-12; WS-0033. Variety without dot at the end of the tail. A supremely charming example of the excessively popular minor denomination, this piece provides a lovely strike that has yielded strong details that are only slightly affected by wear. A charming mottled toning of flecked colors compliments both sides, and as such, this example is certain to find a home where it will be cherished for the beauty it holds.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
