Variety with raised swirl on fiery pearl and no dot within Manchu characters. Gleaming with a luster that seems boundless, this Dollar matches several desirable aspects into a singular coin. The strike is full, rendering commendable details on the flan. The luster is rich and sparkling, providing a handsome sheen to the coin. In addition, several generous dollops of colorful toning serve to brighten up the peripheries of the coin, adding immense charm, particularly on the characters' side.
