CHINA. Kansu. Fantasy Silver Dollar, "Year 17 (1928)". NGC MS-62.
cf. L&M-618 (for prototype); cf. K-760 (same); cf. KM-Y-410 (same); cf. WS-0720 (same). Struck in imitation of the VERY RARE Sun Yat-sen provincial Dollar, this immensely brilliant and lustrous specimen dazzles with a great mirrored nature, with only a few stray, inconsequential marks noted in the fields. With the original being incredibly popular and difficult to obtain, this faithful fantasy type undoubtedly serves as an excellent and very worthy substitute.
Estimate: $3000 - $5000
