Description

Satiny Szechuan MS64 Dollar

Szechuan. Kuang-hsü Dollar ND (1901-1908) MS64 PCGS, KM-Y238, L&M-345, Kann-145. Narrow face dragon, Ku connected variety. A popular yet ubiquitous type almost exclusively witnessed at market in lesser states of preservation, or inhibited by conditional modifiers, rarely, if ever, approaching Mint State let alone on the verge of Gem. Mint radiance abounds this satiny survivor, whose reverse (obverse as holdered) is tempered by nary an imperfection, facing up somehow even finer than the assigned grade would indicate. Bolstered by an appealing and gentle amber peripheral tone, the piece on offer stands two full grade-points finer than any we've ever handled, and is bested by just four MS65s out of more than 9,000 representatives between both censuses.

Metal: Silver
Diameter: 39mm
Weight: 26.8g
ASW: 0.7754oz
Mintage: 6,487,000

迷人悅目的MS64四川壹圓

1901-1908年四川省造光緒元寶七錢二分銀幣。MS64 PCGS。
窄臉龍。庫字連筆。此幣雖然深得人心,但產量巨大,市場上的絕大多數例子都品相平平或帶有評級公司批示。具備近原廠狀態,甚至近珍品品相者有如鳳毛麟角。此幣緞亮明淨,散發出縷縷原光。背面難以察覺一絲瑕疵,實物狀態看似比評分所示更佳。幣邊包覆著迷人悅目的淡琥珀包漿,評分比敝司所曾經手的所有例子都高出至少兩分。在兩大評分公司超過九千道記錄中,僅見四枚MS65更勝一籌。


Estimate: $100,000 - $200,000.
