(t) CHINA. Fukien. Copper-Nickel Yuan Shih-kai Fuzhou Shipping Bureau Medallic 10 Cents, Year 3 (1914). PCGS AU-53. Duan-3668. Weight: 2.65 gms. Obverse: Standard Yuan Shih-kai bust, somewhat crudely engraved; Reverse: Anchor with plant flourishes beneath. A VERY RARE medal produced to the standardized size of a Year 3 10 Cent issue, this piece provides an intriguing design that offers a twist to the classic Yuan Shih-kai coinage. Escaping heavy handling or circulation this diminutive medal is wholesome and thoroughly attractive. Undoubtedly an unusual issue, we sold a similar example, graded PCGS AU-55 in our October 2022 Rarities Night for $9,500 hammer. A piece deserving of much attention from any specialist in Chinese coinage seeking to enhance their collections with something a bit different. Estimate: $2,000 - $4,000.
