江苏省造光绪元宝十文。极罕。两面均为背面。合面钱或合背钱可算是独一无二。轻微经手痕迹,与评分相符。无明显瑕疵,非常动人光滑的肉桂色包浆。对顶尖中国铜币藏家而言不容错过。

CHINA. Kiangsu. 10 Cash Mule, ND (1902). PCGS AU-58 Secure Holder.CL-KS.60; W828 (L-L); Duan-1715; cf.Y-162.4/162.6; cf.CCC-243. EXTREMELY RARE. Stuck using two reverse dies. All mules struck using either two obverse or two reverse dies are all rare to extremely rare. Light signs of handling consistent for the grade. Lovely smooth glossy cinnamon and mahogany patina throughout with no major defect to speak of. A real treat for the specialist and sure to excite even the most advance collector of Chinese Cash coinage.
