Japan: Taisho gold 20 Yen Year 6 (1917) MS67 NGC,...

Description

Taisho gold 20 Yen Year 6 (1917) MS67 NGC, Osaka mint, KM-Y40.2, JNDA 01-6. Of immense quality for this series, where the vast majority of those we handle approach and even surpass Gem status, while those of comparable MS67 caliber are largely elusive to the greater market. Produced upon a bright and luminous harvest-gold planchet, with waves of brilliance cascading across the surfaces uninhibited. While just a single ranks finer by way of a half-point between both grading services, the piece on offer is not to be overlooked by the quality-conscious connoisseur.

大正六年（1917）二十圓金幣。MS67 NGC。
大阪造幣廠。此幣鑄工優秀上乘，乃至敝公司所經手的例子大多都獲評珍品或以上分數。這枚MS67的例子亦不例外，在市場上頗受青睞。麥金色的幣坯亮麗明淨，粼粼光澤在幣面上流淌傾瀉。在兩大評級公司的記錄中，僅有一例以半分之差稍勝一籌。對於講究品相的資深藏家而言，此幣萬萬不能錯過。
