This specimen was lot 54668 in Stack's Bowers Hong Kong auction (Hong Kong, April 2021), where it sold for $132. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "[[China|CHINA]]. Manchukuo. Fen, Kangde 2 (1935). NGC MS-64 Brown. A boldly struck and pleasing Fen with full radiant luster and dark brown patina." Manchukuo was the puppet state set up by the Japanese in Northeast China to govern the provinces they conquered in 1931. They persuaded K'ang Te, the last emperor of the Manchu dynasty, to be its ruler. He was regent 1932-34 (Ta T'ung era) and emperor 1934-45 (K'ang Te era). He quickly discovered that his rule was merely nominal but he was not allowed to escape. In August 1945, the Russians invaded and occupied the region. After thoroughly looting the factories and banks, they turned it over to the Communist Chinese, who used it as a base to conquer the rest of China from the Nationalists. This type was struck years KT 1 thru 5.
