CHINA. Sinkiang. 5 Mace (Miscals), ND (1910). Tihwa Mint. Hsuan-t'ung (Xuantong [Puyi]). PCGS MS-62.
L&M-820; K-1012; KM-Y-6; WS-1293. Ration coinage. Variety with "Chaitai" on characters side. A wholly staggering and remarkable specimen, this nearly-Choice example presents quality that is no doubt RARE, and rather unsurprisingly, is tied with just three others for the top spot in the PCGS census. Sharp in strike and most elegantly toned through its subtle pastel nature, this piece should generate great appeal and enthusiasm for a province that often suffers from production and preservation issues.
Estimate: $5000 - $10000
