(t) CHINA. Yunnan. 10 Cash, CD (1906). PCGS MS-63 Red Brown.

cf. CL-YN.08; Y-10v; CCC-569; Duan-2759. Small "Tien". Intense pinkish red blends remarkably well with rich mahogany brown on this piece that boasts a razor sharp strike from fresh dies. The English legend shows unusual doubled punching, especially on the G in "CHING", though this is a somewhat special die characteristic and not included in the CL book on Chinese coppers. A highly desirable piece considering there are only four graded finer by PCGS in the Red Brown category and none finer in Red.

Estimate: $700.00 - $1000.00

丙午"滇"字戶部大清銅幣十文。

小字"滇"。濃郁的粉紅色與醇厚的紅木棕色交織，鑄打纖毫畢現，使用全新模具打鑄。英文銘文有少有的複打，"CHING"中的"G"尤為明顯。雖然模具較有特色，但並未收錄於 CL 的中國銅錢部分。PCGS 紅棕色評級中僅 4 枚更高分，紅色評級無更高分，因此定能吸引藏家踴躍競投。
