江西省造光绪元宝当十。 右高左低眼,反面重模。轻微流通,图文压铸深峻,呈巧克力棕色包浆,高铸处些许部位可见铜色。图文间有轻微积土,原汁原味,赏心悦目。细看可见反面经双重铸打,右侧省名 Kiang Si 及满文厂名痕跡最為明显。段洪刚所著《中国铜元谱》中同版别币重模主要位於左端。此枚定让藏匣流光溢彩,若藏家能同时觅得Duan-1456原物,成双成对,更让人神魂颠倒。
CHINA. Kiangsi. 10 Cash, ND (1902). Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS AU-58. CL-KSI.82; KM-Y-150.3; cf. Duan-1456. Variety right eye higher than left eye and with doubled character side (DDR). This lightly circulated survivor exhibits boldly struck devices and a pleasing chocolate brown patina with areas copper coloration in the highest points. Minor earthen deposits amongst the devices and crevasses add to its originality and eye appeal. Close inspection of the character side devices reveals die doubling, most prominent on the right side of the coin at the province name Kiang Si (江西) and Manchu character that indicates the mint name. The example plated in the Duan (1993) is slightly different in that the die doubling is on the left side of the reverse. This interesting variety is certain to add depth to even the most advanced collections of 10 Cash and would make an excellent companion piece to Duan-1456, if one could be acquired.
