Künker sale 354, lot 5129

This specimen was lot 5129 in Künker sale 354 (Osnabrück, Germany, September 2021), where it sold for €1,900 (about US$2,644 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"CHINA, Volksrepublik. 100 Yuan 1993. Große Persönlichkeiten der chinesischen Geschichte. Mao Ze Dong. 10,38 g Feingold. GOLD. Polierte Platte. (people's republic of China, one hundred yuan of 1993. Great figures in Chinese history, Mao Zedong. Proof.)"

This is one of a series of NCLT's honoring great figures of Chinese history and certainly no one towers taller than Mao Zedong, for good or ill.

Recorded mintage: 5,500 proofs.

Specification: 11.32 g, 0.917 fine gold, 0.333 troy oz AGW.

Catalog reference: KM 534, Fr-79; Wang/Chan/Lin CC-486.
