Weight: 36.98 gms. Variety with large characters. Obverse: Gia Long Nien Tao (Made in the era of Gia Long); Reverse: Tinh Ngan Nhat Lang (one Lang of silver); Left side: Trung Binh Hieu (name of scales); Right side: Tri Tien Nhi Quan Bat Mach. This nicely preserved and richly toned survivor exhibits bold well-formed characters with relatively smooth surfaces. Close inspection of the obverse reveals evidence of being struck multiple times, as is commonly encountered on many Annamese issues. Pleasing to the eye and attractive, these issues are seldom encountered in high states of preservation and should be considered highly desirable.
