Description

China, collector copies, silver one dollar (cf.K-21, W-557), (26.92g) (39.58mm). Minor differences in the dragon's horns and in the spines/whiskers around its face, and above all in its dorsal spines, which are not thorn-shaped as they usually are but shaped like barbs, the obverse of this coin appears to be identical to the Wenchao coin, except that it has a few less dentils, toned nearly uncirculated.
