Sun Yat-sen Concept Foreshadowing the "Junk" Series (t) CHINA. Silver Dollar Pattern, Year 18 (1929). Hangchow Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-64. L&M-92; K-614; KM-Pn97; WS-0136b; Chang-CH195; Wenchao-907 (rarity: ★★). Italian Design from Rome Mint dies. Variety without mintmark or engraver's name. Without mint mark or engraver's name. This sharply struck and highly lustrous example is dotted with wholesome golden toning that is exceptionally vivid. Though this design was not accepted, the profile served as a basic model for the design later adopted for the 1932 "Junk" Dollar. The dies were engraved by Attilio Motti, the chief-engraver of the Rome Mint, and the design has all the precision that one would expect for a product of the Rome Mint at the time. Certain to attract much attention accounting to the RARITY and fine preservation of the craftsmanship of the example. Estimate: $120,000 - $160,000. Provenance: Ex: Liu Collection.
