STRAITS SETTLEMENTS KG V 1926 REPAIRED MILLED EDGE SILVER DOLLAR

Straits Settlements King George V (1910-1936) 1926 Repaired Milled Edge Silver Dollar Coin.

Rarity: RRRR


A senior numismatist after showed me the  Straits Settlements King George V 1925 Repaired Silver Dollar, he showed me an other piece of very rare Straits Settlements King George V 1926 silver dollar.

It was listed as item code: KN20d and worth RM20,000 for an extremely fine (EF) piece in KN Boon's Malaysia Brunei & Singapore Banknotes and Coins 6th edition catalog. In Steven Tan's "Standard Catalogue of Malaysia,Singapore Brunei Coin & Paper Money" 20th Edition,it was valued at RM36,000 in EF condition (SSC36), same price as the Straits Settlements King George V 1925 Silver Dollar.


This coin looked normal on the obverse and the reverse but the milled edge were repaired. In order to cover the impaired milled edge, there were darken with some black paint. Compared with other parts of the milled edge which showed sign of worn reeded edge, the milled edge on the repaired parts were still new and no sign of wearing. I think it was used as decorative ornament before.
