(t) CHINA. Hunan. 6 Mace, ND (1908). Hunan (Ta-Ching) Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS AU-53.
L&M-400; K-966; WS-0921. Presenting VERY RARE status--so much so that it is the first such occurrence of the type in one of our sales--this impressive near-Mint survivor offers solid detail upon each side along with a fairly deep gray tone. Some hints of brilliance emerge from the protected areas, and allow it to subtly sparkle when cradled back and forth in front of one's eyes. A tremendous opportunity for the aficionado of the Hunan "cake" issues, especially those that offer RARITY paired with an exceptional pedigree. Includes old collector's ticket.
Ex: Eduard Kann Collection.
Estimate: $10000 - $20000
