(t) CHINA. Dollar, Year 23 (1934). Shanghai Mint. PCGS MS-61.
L&M-110; K-624; KM-Y-345; WS-0149. Yunnan variety. A charming Mint State example of this SCARCE variety, the surfaces glow with handsome mint luster and a nearly total blast white complexion. Just a faint hint of smoky toning on the obverse with a patch of richer toning on the Junk Boat side. Signs of handling consistent for the grade, but given the elusiveness of the type in this state of preservation, this piece is certain to attract spirited bidding.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
