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.

People's Bank of China has been issuing collectible coins made with precious metal since 1979. In 1992, it released its first Chinese Lunar signs Kilo series, also known as the First Issue (1981-92) Chinese Lunar Complete Set Commemorative Issue. At the time, the gold coin was the spotlight amongst collectors and demand far exceeded its supply.
此品顯然在發行後隨即被精心打理收藏，每枚保養完美無瑕，品相絕頂無雙。深霧面圖文反射於最高度的鏡面之上，無一角度不美，充分展現及保留了鑄幣技術上的完美度。NGC統計顯示，1989年龍鳳20元銀幣僅有12枚，而200元金幣僅有6枚，未有出現更好。
Proposed by the famed British numismatist Sir John Evans to be the 'true' first portrait of an English king on the coinage prior to the Tudor issues inaugurated by Henry VII, we have been able to locate only seven pieces remaining of this issue, three of which are in private collections, with this likely being the finest known.
This piece was auctioned in 2021 March 25 - 27 The Paramount Collection World & Ancient Coins Signature Auction and sold at 750,000 dollars.
