CHINA. Kirin. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), CD (1905). Kirin Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). NGC AU-55.
L&M-557A; K-513; KM-Y-183A.3; WS-0498. Slender horn (fine scales) variety with hooked "kuang" and "sheng," and with dot in Manchu script. Those who know this series will know how RARE it is to find a problem free example this nicely preserved. The strike, though not quite full, is still rather strong. Fully argent, this example bears little evidence of handling or circulation, making it a lovely specimen for the condition focused collector.
Estimate: $7500 - $15000
