Description

Kiangnan. Kuang-hsü Dollar CD 1899 AU Details (Repaired) PCGS, Nanking mint, KM-Y145A.3, L&M-223. New dragon variety. A stunning rendition distinguished by the new dragon motif decorating the coins face, a clear departure from the whimsical "old dragon" design for which these first Kiangnan issues are known. The obverse (reverse as holdered) bears a small discrepancy in surface quality indicative of the noted repair, yet is nearly indistinguishable through the mottled stormy sapphire fields. The reverse dragon motif lies in fine argent coloration supported atop a saturated cerulean sea, lending completely to the piece's advanced visual caliber.

己亥（1899年）江南省造光緒元寶七錢二分銀幣。AU Details (Repaired) PCGS。
南京造幣厰。新龍版。這枚令人耳目一新的銀幣於正面刻有新版飛龍圖案，與「舊龍版」的設計截然不同。正面帶有評級公司所示的修補痕跡，但在斑駁陸離，有如藍寶石般的底板上幾乎渾然不覺。背面的飛龍圖案色澤豐富銳利，賞心悅目。
