A Chinese Silver Pattern certified by Numismatic Guaranty Company® (NGC®) realized nearly $700,000 in a recent Heritage Auctions sale. It was one of 15 NGC-graded coins that realized six-figure prices in the World Coins Platinum Session and Signature Auction on June 21, 2023.
"The world-class lots that comprise this auction make it one of the finest we have seen in a single auction," says Cris Bierrenbach, Executive Vice President of International Numismatics at Heritage Auctions.
A Chinese Sinkiang Provincial Bank 6,000,000,000 Yuan = 10,000 Gold Yuan Pick S1797 PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 EPQ, the largest known denomination for any Chinese banknote, drew the largest result ever when it more than doubled its pre-auction estimate, ending at $78,000.

It is our utmost pleasure to welcome the top coin dealers from all around the world.
People's Bank of China has been issuing collectible coins made with precious metal since 1979.

At the time, the gold coin was the spotlight amongst collectors and demand far exceeded its supply.

Polymer banknotes are being introduced in more and more countries worldwide.

A fantastic rarity struck in the earliest years of Charles II's reign, and an offering that ranks leagues beyond many of even the "best" survivors of his reign, by virtue of its combined elusiveness, choice preservation, and opulent golden presentation.
