CHINA--EMPIRE. 1 Tael, 22.1.1898. P-A46.(S/M #C293-1a) A tremendous note which is there is simply not enough of to satisfy collector demand. This piece is from the more challenging Taels issue from the Shanghai branch. Generally even circulation with a heavier vertical fold, some pinholes and a faint section of scuffed paper are mentioned. Nice detail remains with pleasing contrast for the grade. Worthy of the finest of collections.Very Good
