KM-Y344 Birds over Junk, a choice original coin with superior booming luster. Slight scruffiness on cheek, a characteristic of this date/variety which keeps it from grading MS-65 or higher. The rare bird over junk type was only minted in one year in 1932. In 1933 the reverse was altered to omit the rising sun and three birds because the onset of China's war with Japan- as the rising sun is Japan's national symbol and the birds resembled low flying Japanese bombers. Original problem free coin with extremely light toning over booming lustrous surfaces. Very rare this nice and a premium specimen and much nicer than most seen in recent years at auction.
