Description

Sinkiang. Kuang-hsü Sar (Tael) AH 1325 (1907) VF30 PCGS, Kashgar mint, KM-Y26, L&M-744, Kann-1120, WS-1221. A highly elusive issue, even when found moderately circulated such as this piece. Light gray patina in the centers turn darker, with olive hues, when huddled around the legends and peripheral designs. The soft dragon motif is very common for the type, as these issues were rather crudely created. Highly coveted when found without problems, such as this charming specimen.

1907年新疆喀什造大清銀幣湘平壹兩。VF30 PCGS。
喀什造幣廠。這款銀幣向來深得人心，即使像此例般帶有若干流通痕跡亦不乏捧場客。淡灰色的包漿在銘文和邊緣上星羅棋佈，並往中央處匯聚變深，幻化出一脈欖綠光華。一如多數例子，飛龍圖案稍嫌軟弱含糊，歸咎於當時較粗糙的工藝。具備上佳品相，免於瑕疵的例子向來競逐者眾，此例正是當中的佼佼者。
