拍品描述： 民国十六年孙中山像陵墓壹圆银样币。南京铸币厂。珍罕度： ★★★。发行量480枚。 出自维也纳造币厂，由Richard Placht雕刻。虽见清洗痕迹，但整体依然诱人。正面中央银灰包浆，香槟包浆于环形隐约始现。反面包浆均匀，旭日初昇的光线仿似照耀整个底板。 备受欢迎的版别，入手绝佳良机。<p>深受欢迎的极罕版别，发行量低，设计典雅。出自奥地利籍雕刻家之手，工艺精湛，但其设计注定了落选的命运。Placht 从未见过陵墓，因此反面设计备受质疑。同时，或因未曾见过中国人，导致孙中山的肖像与真人相差颇远。耿爱德引述中国造币厂官员称，币上肖像与后登上总统之座的德国军方领袖-保罗-冯-兴登堡更为形似。<p>(t) CHINA. Silver Mausoleum Dollar Pattern, Year 16 (1927). Nanking Mint. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, Unc Details.L&M-85; K-609; KM-Unlisted; WS-0130; Wenchao-898 (rarity: ★★★). Mintage: 480. Engraved by Richard Placht of the Vienna Mint. Though some minor cleaning is noted, this eminently desired issue remains exceptionally enchanting and attractive. A mostly argent nature is observed in the central portions of the obverse, while some champagne hues intensify as ones moves outward toward the edges. Meanwhile, the reverse is more evenly patinated, with the rising sun seemingly casting its warming rays all throughout the fields. A great opportunity for this ever-popular pattern.<p><p>This heavily demanded and <strong>EXCESSIVELY RARE</strong> type is ceaselessly desirable on account of the miniscule mintage and elegant design. Despite the wonderful engraving work undertaken by the Austrian engraver, this piece was destined to fail on account of its design elements. Placht had never seen the mausoleum in question, and may also have never even seen a person of Chinese descent, making his rendering of Sun Yat-sen rather distinct from Suns actual appearance. Kann reports a Chinese Mint officials comment that the portrait bore a much stronger resemblance to German military leader-turned-president, Paul von Hindenburg, instead of the intended Chinese hero.
