China
Republic Yuan Shih-kai "Plumed Hat" Dollar ND (1914) UNC Details (Cleaned) PCGS, Tientsin mint, KM-Y322, L&M-858, Kann-642. 39mm. A more affordable example of this iconic early issue struck to commemorate the Founding of the Republic. Despite the qualifier, the piece is quite attractive, imbued with a visual intrigue via slate silhouetting and a whisper of pewter patination across the fields. The actively flaring fields enhance the already captivating design of L. Giorgi, which, along with the reverse devices, maintain an undeniable clarity consistent with Uncirculated states of preservation.
