Extremely Rare Srang Pattern in Silver CHINA. Tibet. Silver Srang (Tam) Pattern, ND (1928-30). Dode Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-45. L&M-Unlisted; K-Unlisted; KM-Pn10; WS-0311 (plate coin); YZM-498. Obverse: Standing snow lion left within a circular border; Reverse: Flower shaped wheel with eight spokes and the whirling jewel of joy in the center. An EXTREMELY RAREpattern issue that likely has it's origins as amongst the first machine struck coins from the new electric coining presses at the Dode Mint that were imported from England. Fully struck and providing steely gray color, the surfaces provide much attractive charm. Despite the special nature of the strike, some evidence of light circulation is seen on the higher elements of the design. An incredibly elusive piece, who's charm is only increased as it is the plate coin in Illustrated Catalogue of Chinese Gold & Silver Coins. About as elusive as any issue from Tibet, this pattern will elevate any specialized collection of Tibetan coins it enters. Estimate: $7,500 - $15,000. Provenance: From the Hardie Collection.
