- Grade: MS63 (NGC).
Nickel alloy coin from the late 1930s Chinese Republic series. The obverse features a sober, realistically modeled portrait of Sun Yat-sen, with good facial sculpting and firm relief, characteristic of the political iconography of the republican period. The reverse presents a geometrical design of strong symbolic character, with the denomination shown in traditional characters and a well-defined decorative border. A specimen with notable original luster, clean fields and a uniform light patina, with slight surface marks consistent with the grade, offering a balanced and attractive visual presence.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to make it absolutely clear that I ship from Spain. This means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (for example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs, and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and is completely out of our control. Thank you for your understanding.
