新疆喀什光绪银圆五分。莎草造币厂。 PCGS中与另外两枚钱币同为第二,仅一枚分数更高(AU58) 。铸压出众居中,诱人的丁香灰色币面,通透溢彩。正面的上方位置有些赤褐色泽,经手痕迹极微。赏心悦目的一枚,此系列中高品相的佳作。 (t)
CHINA. Sinkiang. 5 Fen (1/2 Miscal), AH 1295 (1878). Yarkand Mint. PCGS AU-55. L&M-666; KM-Y-A7.16. Tied for second finest certified with two other examples on the PCGS population report, only one finer (AU 58). Well struck and centered for the issue with attractive lilac-gray surfaces that gently fluctuate in intensity. A hint of dusty russet patina endows the upper areas of the obverse, and signs of handling are difficult to detect. An excellent example for specialists who are seeking high grade issues from this series.
