CHINA. Anhwei. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 24 (1898). PCGS MS-64 Gold Shield.
光绪二十四年安徽省造七钱二分银币。大花,平四,日期字体较圆润。在NGC和PCGS的评级中,以此拍品评级为最佳,仅有另外两枚与其持平。铸打完整有力,缎面币面丝滑,带车轮光。引人注目的醇厚点状包浆,呈薰衣草紫、丁香紫、钴蓝色、夜空蓝。原始度高。外观令人倾心,显然经长时间悉心静置于合适的环境中。此版大多有严重的流通痕迹,甚至经认为损伤如戳记或其他损害。因此此枚可説是非常罕有,品相难得一遇,远超以往所见的同版币。位属顶尖集藏的一枚,定能吸引资深藏家为其千金一掷。
CHINA. Anhwei. 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 24 (1898). PCGS MS-64 Gold Shield.L&M-203; K-53; KM-Y-45.5; WS-1080. Variety with large rosettes and flat "Si" with rounded characters in the date. Tied for finest certified of the variety with two other example on the PCGS population report. This particularly attractive example boasts a strong full strike, smooth satiny surfaces and lovely cartwheel luster displaying eye catching rich mottled patination of lavender, lilac, cobalt and mid-night blue offering much originality. The pleasing appearance of this piece is indicative of prolonged storage under the right conditions clearly being plucked from circulation early on. Most issues from this province are usually heavily circulated, many with signs of maltreatment such as chopmarks or other mutilation, and as such the present survivor should be considered <strong>VERY</strong> <strong>RARE</strong> and highly desirable; especially so in this state of preservation. By and far, a vastly superior example than normally encountered certain to catch the attention of many collectors with discerning tastes destined for a fine numismatic cabinet.
