L&M-223; K-75; KM-Y-145A.3; WS-0807. Variety with new style dragon. Despite the notation from PCGS, the present example of the popular Kiangnan Dollar displays commendable details with hardly a trace of wear. Meanwhile the surfaces are quite bright, and despite the hairlines that partially explain the brightness, some remaining originality is to be seen. Despite its drawbacks, a fully presentable and sharply detailed example at a more elusive provincial "Dragon" Dollar.
