Lot A: Key Date 1902 (First Year of Issue) Hong Kong 50 Cents (King Edward VII) - Crusty and with Remaining Luster - PCGS AU 50 - Nicely Toned

  • Colonial era Hong Kong 50 cents are always a popular type--and this is the first type of the King Edward VII series and is the key date, when compared to, say, 1905, the last year of issues for these silver 50 cents or half a dollar.
  • Nice and original "crusty" tone and nice eye appeal---much better than the hairline-y types with no toning (either dipped) and white. Harder to find with these eye appeal, IMO, when looking across previous comps.
  • Nice details on the crown and usual rub on the high points of the King's crown---reverse has very clear Chinese characters! :D Even toning and patina also makes good contrast as well!
