Graded "XF 45" by Zhong Qian Ping Ji Grading Company. BMC-Class LXXXV. Weight: 228.4 gms. "Ku" (Treasury). This handsome and nicely preserved example exhibits a boldly applied stamp and displays mottled gray patina with areas of richer coloration and minor earthen deposits amongst the devices adding to its pleasing appearance. Close inspection reveals an "X" on the reverse on the flat end of the base mentioned for accuracy, but is hardly a distraction. Despite its shortcomings an attractive and wholesome example of the type that is sure to add depth to the next collection it enters.
