Rare NGC-certified Chinese Coin Stars in Spink Sale

A Chinese rarity is among nearly 200 collectible coins certified by Numismatic Guaranty Company® (NGC®) in an upcoming Spink auction being held April 11-12, 2023. Bidding is already underway for Spink’s CSS92A and CSS92B auctions, which are focused on Chinese coins and banknotes.

A highlight of the auction is a China 1906 Restrike 2 Mace graded NGC MS 65 and pedigreed to the D&C Capital Collection (CSS92B, lot 1344). This particular coin was never issued, so survivors are rare, even those that were struck at a later date from the original dies, such as this one. This coin has an estimate of HKD 550,000 to HKD 650,000 (about $71,000 to 83,000).
