(t) CHINA. Dollar, Year 3 (1914). PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, AU Details.
cf. L&M-63 (for regular issue); cf. K-646 (same); cf. KM-Y-329 (same); cf. WS-0174-1 (same). "Military" or "Warlord" issue. Despite the noted cleaning by PCGS, this military type example displays attractively strong details from a crisp strike. Some shimmer and sheen still grace the surfaces, with amber toning near the lower periphery providing contrast. These issues are generally encountered in far poorer shape than this example, making it desirable even with the cleaning.
Estimate: $1200 - $1800
