CHINA. Hunan. 7.2 Candareens (10 Cents), CD (1899). NGC MS-61.
L&M-385; K-161; KM-Y-115.1; WS-0896. Boldly struck with considerable luster with light signs of handling consistent for the grade. Seldom seen type and tough to find in such nice, wholesome and collectible condition. Most survivors encountered from this seemingly small emission usually display significant wear with other defects such as scratches or previous cleaning. A real treat for the specialist looking for high grade sneaky rarities. Our records confirm that we have previously offered five different examples of this type in far inferior condition over that last 10 years, the present piece being the finest we can recall handling. A real treat for the specialist looking for high grade sneaky rarities to add depth to their collection.
Estimate: $1500.00- $2000.00

己亥湖南省造光緒元寶七分二釐銀幣。
鑄打銳利，光澤充沛，輕微經手痕跡，與評分一致。少見的版本，難覓品相更佳者。此版本似乎發行量很少，通常有顯著磨損及其他瑕疵，如劃痕或清洗痕跡。過去十年，我們曾經手過五枚此版本銀幣，品相都不如此枚。高級藏家豐富藏品的不二之選。 On September 1, 2019, the United States enacted new tariffs on collector's items manufactured in China.

Furthermore, as a result of the new tariffs, all orders will be shipped directly from our Hong Kong offices and shipments to the United States will be subject to our international shipping chart.
