拍品描述： 民国十年徐世昌像纪念银币。天津造币厂。 光边。反面下端无铭文。 罕见 ，币面色泽深沉不一，或因此得该分数。极其微弱经手痕跡及髮丝痕，可见上任藏家对其万分爱惜。仍见光泽，虽仅得细节评分，但是整体精美不减。 <em>此版深受欢迎，被认為是样币，但於本质上来说应是奖章，為纪念北京协和医院开幕所铸。原铸版凉亭底下留空，方便刻上受章者名字，因在首批初试雕刻姓名难度过高，其后版别改為 纪念币 三字。</em>

CHINA. Silver Medallic Dollar, Year 10 (1921). Tientsin Mint. PCGS Genuine--Stained, Unc Details. L&amp;M-957; K-676a; WS-0103. Variety with plain edge and without legend at bottom of reverse. This example of the popular and RARE Pavillion Dollar provides an inconsistent deep color on the surfaces that likely accounts for the grade assigned. Very little evidence of contact or hairlines exists on this piece, implying that it was immensely treasured by its previous owners. Some light luster remains, which occasionally peaks out in a charming and beautiful display. Despite being a details coin, it is a completely wholesome representative of the type. <em>An incredibly popular and desirable type believed to have been a pattern issue, it now appears that these were, in fact, more medallic in nature, and meant to be given out upon the opening of the Peking Union Medical College (PUMC). Initially designed with a blank field below the pavilion for recipients names to be engraved, the design was altered to contain the three struck characters instead, as the engraving proved difficult on the initial batch.</em></p> From the Kairos Collection.
