(t) CHINA. Tibet. 3 Srang, BE 16-8 (1934). Tapchi Mint. PCGS AU-58.
L&M-659A; cf. K-1444; KM-Y-25; WS-0318. Variety with eight-tailed lion. Sitting at the cusp of Mint State status, this elegant example offers a slightly frosty nature with very little evidence of handling and ample brilliance to the fields. A satisfying layer of emerald-gray and charcoal patina remains, demonstrating full originality.
Estimate: $600 - $800
