- Grading: AU55 (NGC).

Silver “Memento” type coin with a left-facing portrait of Sun Yat-sen, in a realistic and sober style, framed by a dotted fillet and a legend in Chinese characters. The reverse presents a symbolic composition with ears of grain and foliage surrounding the central characters, alongside the English legend and six-pointed stars, a characteristic of this variant. The specimen shows moderate wear in the high-relief areas, with details still well defined in the portrait and botanical elements, fields with a homogeneous gray patina and circulation marks visible but not aggressive. A representative piece of the Chinese republican period, minted as a commemorative issue in a context of political transition and monetary modernization.
