(t) CHINA. Chihli (Pei Yang). 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 34 (1908). Tientsin (Central) Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS MS-62.
L&M-465; cf. K-208 (for type); KM-Y-73.2; WS-0642. Frozen date issue with plain 4. A gleaming near-Choice Dollar, this impressive piece from Chihli delivers robust details and unending appeal to the eyes. Wonderful luster dances in the light beneath the swirling sea of rich and variegated toning that offers a color palette that spans from goldenrod to plum. The surfaces largely escape ugly cratering or hits, and provide a welcome relief from the normal faults that are seen on the type. A piece that is a cut above, in both technical condition and beauty, what is normally encountered.
Estimate: $10000 - $15000
