Kirin. Kuang-hsü Dollar CD 1905 AU58 NGC, Kirin mint, KM-Y183a.3, L&M-557, Kann-512, WS-0498. Variety with rosettes at date, hooked sheng, hooked kuang, and dot in Manchu. Wholly appreciable and far above the majority of survivors both in terms of its technical quality and eye appeal. Though minted from characteristically rough dies, the struck detail appears marvelously well-expressed, hints of flow lines in particular appearing around the rightmost Manchu character on the obverse. Likely bound in its designation by the presence of a few small scratches around the dragon, and in all senses virtually Mint State.
