Description

Deeply Toned "Plumed Hat" Dollar

Republic Yuan Shih-kai "Plumed Hat" Dollar ND (1914) MS63 NGC, Tientsin mint, KM-Y322, L&M-858, Kann-642, WS-0094. Of impressive quality, both regarding the assigned grade and appreciable patina seen on this iconic issue. Lavender hues fill the dove fields where golden silhouette toning highlights the bold motifs. Yuan Shih-kai's portrait boasts the "Plumed Hat"--for which this type is appropriately named--in its full definition. A departure from previous, slightly crude portraiture, this example is a clear product of Luigi Giorgi's expertise, painstakingly detailed and precisely struck.
