拍品描述： LOT WITHDRAWN罕见中国省份镍制样币，雕刻技术精湛，通体细节栩栩如生。柔美光泽，处理或摩擦不多。令人印象深刻的一枚，相信任何省钱币专家都会对此深感兴趣。<em>此镍样币突出了军阀时代中国经济史上的有趣发展。铜币产量过多，通货膨胀令价值下降。作为替代，山西省长建议用镍铸造硬币并以银元为本，以抑制通货膨胀。这些镍币最终失败告终，随著陝西造币厂的关闭，陝西的样币打铸亦歇止。 </em>NO LOT.K-823; KM-Pn2; CCMC-SS.1. An INCREDIBLY RARE Chinese Provincial Pattern in Nickel, this Gem specimen yields a vibrant strike and much in the way of wholesome details throughout. A soft glimmering luster is retained, with limited instances of handling or friction seen on the surfaces. A most impressive and wholesome example, and one for which we expect any specialist in Provincial coinage to be deeply interested in. <em>This Pattern in Nickel highlights an interesting development in the economic history of Warlord Era China. Copper Cash coins were produced in such excess quantity that inflation began to erode their value. As a replacement the provincial governor of Shansi suggesting striking coins in nickel and fixing them to the value of silver dollars, so as to curb inflation. These attempts at producing a nickel coinage ultimately were unsuccessful, and pattern strikes at Shensi stopped with the closure of the Shensi Mint. </em>
