Obverse: Male bust left, wearing rice hat and with caricatured features; Reverse: Inscription in 5 lines: "AU CHINOIS / SES PRODUITS / AU CONSOMMATEUR / A / L'APPRECIER". This lot offers a seldom seen Jeton from France that highlights just how instrumental China had become to international trade by the beginning of the 20th century. Nicely struck, though the brassy surfaces slightly worn. VERY RARE, albeit it fairly stereotypical. Estimate: $500 - $750. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
