| Lot description: (t) CHINA. Kiangnan. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), CD (1904)-HAH TH. Nanking Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). NGC MS-63. L&M-256; K-102; KM-Y-145A.16; WS-0855. Variety with dragon with fewer spines. A resounding example of the "1903-style dragon" with fewer spines, this Choice crown radiates with an inordinate degree of brilliant luster. Meanwhile, the strike is rather exacting and engaging--no small feat for a type plagued by poor manufacture and significant striking weakness. Just a tinge of burnished champagne toning is noted at the peripheries--the only real aspect that breaks an otherwise argent flair. To view all items from the KL Collection, click here.
