China: , Chihli. Kuang-hsü Dollar Year 24 (1898) XF45 PCGS,...
Chihli. Kuang-hsü Dollar Year 24 (1898) XF45 PCGS, Pei Yang Arsenal mint, KM-Y65.2, L&M-449, Kann-191, WS-0618. Spectacled dragon variety. A slightly better variety for the issue, a quick search of auction records suggesting very few of these "spectacled"-eyed Dragon types have become available in recent years. In spite of its lower technical grade, the offering exhibits a strong strike together with ample residual satin texture that captures a shimmering finish over the obverse (reverse as holdered) surfaces.
