Republic Yuan Shih-kai "Plumed Hat" Dollar ND (1916) MS63 PCGS, Tientsin mint, KM-Y332, L&M-942, Kann-663, Chang-CH223, WS-0097. Struck for the inauguration of Yuan Shih-kai as Emperor Hung-hsien. A peak quality example from one of the most collectible Republican types and one that evokes fervor when encountered in any state of preservation, let alone in choice designations and finer. Atypically frosty expanses decorate the piece at hand, rendering the piece with an obviously advances visual character. Each detail is presented as intended by the engraver, fully embossed on a watery argent canvas, accented by a peripheral autumnal tone. Despite the presence of grade-defining wisps, these are largely obscured by booming, multi-point luster that fully pervades the offering, making it the perfect candidate for inclusion in an advanced cabinet. From the Tony Ma Collection
