(t) CHINA. Cent, Year 5 (1916). Tientsin Mint. PCGS MS-64 Brown.
CL-MG.56; KM-Y-324a. Commendably struck, this near-Gem example offers some glossy sheen on the surfaces along with some faint touches of mint red throughout. A few minor instances of contact and a small spot likely prevent full Gem status, but nevertheless, it remains a premium piece for the collector of Republican types.
Estimate: $700 - $1000
