Lot description:


CHINA. Silver Dollar Pattern, Year 18 (1929). Hangchow Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-55.
L&M-97; K-617; KM-Pn101; WS-0135-1; Chang-CH193; Wenchao-912 (rarity: ★★). Austrian design from Vienna Mint dies. One of the various designs whereby a number of world mints were tasked with their take on the eventual Sun Yat-sen/"junk" boat series of Dollars, this type created in Vienna but struck locally in Hangchow presents a bit of a more subtle take on the characters and iconography, with the former being a bit smaller in nature than the other mints, and the latter being a bit softer in detail and contour.
