China: Republic Tsao Kun silver "Inauguration" Medal ND (1923) AU,...

Description

Republic Tsao Kun silver "Inauguration" Medal ND (1923) AU, Barac-149, KM-X1231, Kann-Plate 189, L&M-960, WS-0106. 36mm. 30.30gm. Plain edge. With suspension and (likely later) ribbon. A notably rare medal produced for Tsao Kun's inauguration as President of the Republic, exhibiting only the lightest degree of rub on the highest points of the design and a soft lilac tone. More frequently seen with the suspension removed, and thus quite pleasing to find in its original state, though the ribbon is likely a later replacement (Barac indicates the colors should be black, white, blue, yellow, and red). Sold with padded bamboo case.

Metal: Silver
Diameter: 36mm

1923年曹錕像紀念銀章。AU。
光邊。有懸架和（可能後期的）絲帶。這是為曹錕就任民國總統就職典禮而製作的一種極為罕見的勳章，在設計的最高點僅表現出最小的摩擦度，具柔和的淡紫色包漿。 去除懸架後的更常見，因此很容易找到其原始狀態，儘管絲帶很可能會在以後更換（據Barac 目錄所載其顏色應為黑、白、藍、黃和紅）。此枚與具軟墊的竹盒一起出售。
