CHINA. Hupeh. Tael, Year 30 (1904). Wuchang Mint. Kuang-hsu (Guangxu). PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, AU Details.
L&M-180; K-933; KM-Y-128.2; WS-0878. Small characters variety. The short-lived and SCARCE Hupeh Tael is well represented here by this example that yields a vibrant strike that has generated well formed details that are essentially free from impingement by wearing. The noted cleaning is attested to by some brilliance that is unexpected, though this is tamped down a bit by some highlighting amber toning. When considering everything, this Tael delivers a presentable example of the always popular type for a more affordable, though still not inexpensive, figure.

Estimate: $20000 - $40000
