China
Republic Yuan Shih-kai Dollar Year 3 (1914) MS66 NGC, KM-Y329, L&M-63, Kann-645, WS-0174-8. Yuan connected (Triangle Yuan) variety. A cornerstone of the Chinese series, seldom witnessed at this level of Gem preservation. Blast-white surfaces admit just a handful of toning spots, a neutral canvas that thrusts the devices onto center stage. Duly so, as the motifs are the sharpest this cataloger has witnessed thus far, and face up finer the only other MS66 example we have handled. Nonetheless, one can be easily distracted by the hypnotic luster bolting around the flan, heightening the overall performativity of the offering. This is the finest out of 658 representatives certified at NGC, with PCGS recording a meager 0.02% of its population grading finer across all varieties. Needless to say, we expect this lot to inspire voracious bidding.
