Description

Deeply Toned "Auto Dollar" from Kweichow
CHINA. Kweichow. Auto Dollar (7 Mace 2 Candareens), Year 17 (1928). Uncertain Mint, likely Chengdu. PCGS Genuine--Altered Surfaces, EF Details.
L&M-609; K-757; KM-Y-428; WS-1109. Variety with two grass blades and normal doors. Struck to commemorate the completion of the Kweichow (Guizhou) Provincial Highway, and reportedly featuring Governor Zhou Xicheng's personal automobile. Despite its noted altered surfaces, this exceptional rendition of a popular type presents the iconic automobile in clear detail. The coloring, though somewhat mottled, offers hues of gunmetal gray, deep amber, and olive, with the higher points displaying a light nature that stands in bold contrast.
