光緒二十三年北洋機器局造壹圓銀幣。圆眼龙,长角。极罕版别,近原厂品相,铸打出眾精美,主為枪灰色包浆,底板深处见光泽展现,品相一流,绝对是藏家必争的一枚。(t) CHINA. Chihli (Pei Yang). 7 Mace 2 Candareens (Dollar), Year 23 (1897). Tientsin (East Arsenal) Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS AU-58.L&M-444; cf. K-186; KM-Y-65.1; WS-0609. Variety with round-eyed dragon with long horns. An EXTREMELY RARE type when encountered at or near grades of Mint State, as is the case here, this robust and supremely pleasing example offers a sharp, well executed strike, a mostly gunmetal gray hue to the wholesome surfaces, and some hints of luster emanating from the protected areas--all aspects which should place this specimen in prime position for spirited competition.
