- CHINA. Dollar, ND (1923). Tientsin Mint. PCGS MS-63.
L&M-959; K-678 = KM; WS-0105. Tsao Kun in military attire/Proclamation of the Constitution commemorative. Sharply detailed with strong reflective qualities in the fields and dappled tone over both sides. In this quality, an issue that remains in constant demand from collectors seeking a relic of China's illustrious past.
Tsao Kun's short presidency began in October 1923, after he openly bribed the National Assembly members with $5,000 in silver dollars to gain the office. This blatant act of corruption resulted in rival factions turning against him, with Tsao Kun eventually being ousted in a coup led by General Feng Yuxiang in October 1924.
Estimate: $40,000 - $60,000.

民國十二年曹錕像壹圓紀念銀章。天津造幣廠。
武曹/ 省憲頒佈紀念。細節銳利,底板鏡面鋥亮,兩面均有包漿。在追尋中國歷史象徵的藏家之中備受追捧,此等品相尤甚。曹錕於1923年擔任大總統,任期較短,而此章即是在1923年鑄成。他公然以5,000銀元賄賂國會成員而登上大總統之位。其腐敗橫行的政府招致了許多反對,最終在1924年10 月,曹錕政府被軍閥馮玉祥發起的政變推翻。
