TIBET:LOT of 4 silver kelzang tangkas: ND [1910], Y-14, square in square type, a popular and scarce type, lightly crimped EF quality, retail value $500, lot of 4 coins, EF. This special tangka, struck in better silver than the normal ga-den tangkas, was distributed to monks during the Monlam Festival ("Great Prayer" Festival) in early 1910. The distribution most probably took place in the Kelzang Palace, which is located in the Norbulingka, the park and summer palaces of the Dalai Lamas in Lhasa.
