CHINA. Fengtien. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 25 (1899). Fengtien Arsenal Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). NGC EF-45.
L&M-478; K-248B; KM-Y-87; WS-0592. Variety with beaded central circle. Commanding immediate attention with its stunning coating of rich toning, this wholesome Dollar delivers much variance in the colors it displays, with soft golds and blues folding into more intense reds and violets as the peripheries are reached. Though circulated, much detail still remains unafflicted by destructive wearing, meanwhile glossiness is still firmly attached to the surfaces. A type that is seldom encountered, and less so without problem, making it certain to capture many bids.
Estimate: $15000 - $25000
