(t) CHINA. Kiangnan. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), CD (1904)-HAH CH. Nanking Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS MS-61.
L&M-257C; K-100; KM-Y-145A.14; cf. WS-0858. Variety without dots under "chia" and "chen" and with dot before "7 MACE". With a divine radiance that seemingly leaps forth from the planchet, especially with respect to the dragon, this stunning crown presents a sublime array of lustrous originality along with an enticing frostiness to the surfaces. Just a hint of champagne-hued color at the peripheries is all the breaks an otherwise monochromatic nature.
Estimate: $5000 - $10000
