Lot Description

Enchanting Mint State Tibetan 20 Srang CHINA. Tibet. 20 Srang, BE 15-52 (1918). Gser Khang Mint. PCGS MS-61. L&M-1063; Fr-1; K-1588; KM-Y-22; WS-0185. Variety without dot in the center of the reverse. Though a hint of striking weakness is noted in the central areas, likely accounting for the grade level, this enthralling specimen is wholly without evidence of time spent in circulation and offers an enchanting degree of lustrous brilliance remaining in the protected areas. Meanwhile, the color takes on a golden-olive hue, with some deeper orange highlights sprinkled in around the devices. Estimate: $10,000 - $20,000. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
