(t) CHINA. Hunan. 9 Mace, ND (1908). Hunan (Ta-Ching) Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS VF-35.
L&M-397 K-963; WS-0918. Representing the first such instance of the type that we have offered, this VERY RARE example does display some mottling of color and weakness to the characters, but nevertheless rather happily remains without issue. Given its extremely difficult status as well as the highly prestigious collection that it once graced, it easy to see how it could attain quite lofty heights. Includes old collector's ticket.
Ex: Eduard Kann Collection.
Estimate: $10000 - $20000
