Kiangnan. Kuang-hsü 10 Cash CD 1905 MS64 Brown PCGS, KM-Y135.9, L&M-Unl. An incredibly rare "Flying Dragon" variety to locate in this near-gem state of certification, and currently tied for the finest graded by PCGS. The presented piece exudes a captivating cupric-red color around the devices, brightening the flan and turning the chocolaty-brown flan to a rich mahogany. We previously sold a similar example in the same grade for $2,990 in our January 2011 New York Auction #3012 (Lot 23609), though it displayed more striking weakness than the coin at hand.

乙巳（1905年）江南省造光緒元寶十文銅幣。MS64 Brown PCGS。 極為罕見的「翔龍」系列，近乎GEM級的認證狀態，MS級別是PCGS中的最佳評級。硬周圍散發出迷人的銅紅包漿，光亮動人，巧克力棕色漸變成豐富的桃花心木色。本行早前於2011年1月的紐約拍賣＃3012（拍品編號23609）中以2,990美金成交了同等級的一枚，但該枚痕跡更多、這枚顯得更佳品相。
