1904,
CHINA. Hupeh. Tael, Year 30 (1904). PCGS MS-64+ Secure Holder.
Gorgeously Toned High Grade Small Characters Tael
L&M-180; K-933; Y-128.2; WS-0878; Wenchao-pg. 381#583; Shanghai Museum-Mr. Shi Jiagan's collection-pg. 69#361; Sun-1-2-06. Small characters. Originally 648,000 Hupeh Taels were minted, this includes both large and small character types; however, it is unknown exactly how many of each were struck. The Hupeh Tael was introduced as part of a projected coinage reform based on the traditional Chinese weight standard, rather than the Dollar system. In the initial proposal to produce these coins, it was also suggested to produce smaller denominations in the values of 1, 2, and 5 Mace. However, no such pieces have surfaced (even in pattern form) and it is unlikely they were ever produced. The general populous found it complicated in converting two distinctly different coinage systems, especially when making change. A Hupeh Tael housed in the British museum supports this by showing evidence of cutting to make change. The British museum specimen is essentially mint state with a large pie shape section cut from the coin. The cut is in a similar manner to the "broken dollars" picture on pg. 121 figure 4.10 of Joe Cribb's reference "Money in the Bank". This short lived series circulated for only a brief period and was soon after replaced by the unified Tai Ching Ti Kuo silver coinage. Although the Hupeh Tael coinage has a fairly large mintage, most were likely melted down to be made into later coinage. It is interesting to note that the Hupeh Taels were struck in 0.877 fine silver, as opposed to the 0.960 fine silver set forth by the currency regulations of 1905. Brilliant rainbow toning. Choice and well struck. Tied with one other at its grade, with only five higher at either NGC or PCGS.
PCGS#: 115698
