乙巳江苏省造光绪元宝十文。错版。 一眼可见,此枚两面均使用反面模具铸打。两面几乎完全一致,只在祥云的排列有些许不同。Woodward 认為此币“极有可能”是戏铸币,罕见程度為“RR”级。评鉴报告亦佐证此观点。PCGS 仅评鉴过三枚,此為唯一未经流通品相。 整体呈摩卡棕色,些许红光点缀,币面油亮。表面接触痕跡极少,字体之间轻微沉积。备受追捧的 罕品 ,翻查过往拍卖仅在 2018 年香港拍卖中找到一枚 VF-25。品相惊艷,定能创下新高,為江苏铜钱树立新的里程碑。
CHINA. Kiangsu. Mint Error -- Double Dragon Mule -- 10 Cash, ND (ca. 1906). Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS MS-62 Brown. CL-KS.67; Woodward-865 (12-13; RR); Duan-1718; KM-Y-10n (for basic type). When one looks at this piece, it is immediately noticed that it presents two reverse dies. Nearly identical on each side, with a distinguishing merely by the arrangement of the clouds. Regarding this piece, Woodward wrote that there is a strong probability that these pieces were mint sport and that this piece is of RR rarity, which is confirmed by the population reports. PCGS has only ever certified three of this type, with the this example being the only uncirculated example of the trio. Mocha brown in overall color, and with touches of red mint luster peaking through and an overall glossy finish to the surfaces. Very little evidence of contact is seen on the surfaces, though some light deposits are observed in the recesses between characters. Certainly among the most desirable of RARITIES , this type was only ever able to be traced to one auction in the past, a VF-25 example from our 2018 Hong Kong auction. Dwarfing that piece in beauty, this example may well reach a new plateau and establish a new landmark for Kiangsu cash pieces.
