拍品描述： 民國十六年孫中山像陵墓壹圓銀樣幣。出自维也纳造币厂，由 Richard Placht 雕刻。罕见的孙中山像陵墓一圆样币。纤毫毕露，无显眼瑕疵；光泽炫目，熠熠生辉，连绵不绝；反面有些许擦痕。经久不衰，定受瞩目。深受欢迎的极罕版别，发行量低，设计典雅。出自奥地利籍雕刻家之手，工艺精湛，但其设计注定了落选的命运。Placht 从未见过陵墓，因此反面设计备受质疑。同时，或因未曾见过中国人，导致孙中山的肖像与真人相差颇远。耿爱德引述中国造币厂官员称，币上肖像与后登上总统之座的德国军方领袖-保罗-冯-兴登堡更為形似。</em>CHINA. Silver "Mausoleum" Dollar Pattern, Year 16 (1927). Nanking Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-58.L&M-85; K-609; WS-0130; Wenchao-898 (rarity: ★★★); Sun-III-4-01. Engraved by Richard Placht at the Vienna Mint. Mintage: 480. A gloriously lustrous example of the RARE "Mausoleum Dollar" type, the present specimen yields an abundance of details that escape wearing of any note. The surfaces radiate light in a frenetic display, and this radiance is largely unbroken by mark, with a limited amount of friction on the reverse. A dramatic example of this always demanded Dollar, one that has very few faults, and many merits which will impel it forward to a strong showing at auction. This heavily demanded type is ceaselessly desirable on account of the minuscule mintage and elegant design. Despite the wonderful engraving work undertaken by the Austrian engraver, this piece was destined to fail on account of its design elements. Placht had never seen the mausoleum in question on the reverse, and may have never even seen a Chinese person, making his rendering of Sun Yat-sen rather distinct from the actual appearance the latter. Kann reports a Chinese Mint officials comment that the portrait bore a much stronger resemblance to German military leader-turned-president, Paul von Hindenburg instead.</em>
