K-681x (copper); cf. KM-Y-355 (for regular issue); WS-0072. Presenting the ever-popular dragon and peacock design that was to serve as the new national emblem, this evocative and <strong>TREMENDOUSLY RARE</strong> specimen features the 20 Cent version, <em>but struck instead in gold</em>. Abundantly brilliant and alluring, it glistens with an opulent array of beauty and charm. The gold produces delightful tinges of orange, serving as subtle yet enchanting glints of further character. Standing as the only such example of the type to grace one of our auctions, this monumental offering should generate an endless degree of interest from the market, not the least of which would be collectors of Republican-era patterns and trials, as well as collectors of world gold <strong>RARITIES</strong> more broadly.Ex: Anderson Collection.
