新疆饷银五钱银币。 版别类似L&M-819A,唯龙周围是小珠圈而非大珠圈(近似L&M-819)。双重铸打,反面颈部盘旋。轻微包浆,光泽稍暗,底板轻微划痕而得此评分。精美绝伦,备受欢迎的一枚。
CHINA. Sinkiang. 5 Mace (Miscals), ND (1905). PCGS AU-58 Gold Shield. cf. L&M-819A; K-1015d; Y-6.6. Similar to L&M-819A except with a small beaded boarder (like L&M-819) rather than the large beaded boarder around dragon (like L&M-819A). Evidence of being double struck and rotated in collar on the reverse. Lightly toned and lustrous; we believe the designated grade stems from subdued luster and light contact marks in the open fields. Overall a very handsome example sure to be a welcome addition to the next collection it enters. Purportedly from the Edward Kann Collection, but unconfirmed.
