CHINA. Dollar, Year 3 (1914). NGC EF-45.
cf. L&M-63 (for prototype); cf. K-646 (same); cf. KM-Y-329 (same); cf. WS-0174-1 (same). "Military" or "Warlord" type. This handsome example of the constantly demanded "Warlord" type; this example provides much detail despite the typical strike weakness. Very light circulation is present, being seen most notably on the finer features of the portraiture. This example displays light attractive gray tone with area of richer coloration near the edges, making it a premium example of this often crude issue.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
