Tsao Kun "Inauguration" Silver Medal, ND (1923). PCGS Genuine--Mount Removed, AU Details.L&M-960; KMX-1231; Barac-149; WS-0106. Diameter: 35mm. Plain edge variety. Obverse: Facing uniformed bust of General Tsao Kun; Reverse: Crossed flags (the "19-star flag" of the Republican army and the "five-colored flag" of the Republic); character in seal script above and below, six stars around. Presenting an alluring character of gunmetal gray toning, this medal delivers commendable details with essentially no evidence of circulation, and limited evidence of handling. Though noted as being removed from a mount, this type was made to be mounted, and it is unclear with the PCGS encapsulation if this piece was ever actually mounted. An attractive specimen, fully deserving of a premium bid from the advanced collector of Chinese medals.
