Hey guys,

I am looking for help identifying the variety on this China Fat Man Dollar from 1914.

Thanks!

Just looking at the posted pictures and comparing to the pages in Kann while reading the amount of variations, I'm one that could not help.
I'd be surprised to learn that anyone could.
And if the piece was accurately pin-pointed to the exact version, I'd like to know or learn how it was done.
If a less accurate ID is acceptable, then Ming has much better illustrations, but not as much variety descriptions.

Edit Added: I now see something that was wrong with my early reply. The topic line asked asked the type but the post asked the variety.

The type should be easy to identify but I did not do that because I was looking over all the varieties.

This is a commonly faked coin. I would have that weighed and magnet-tested.

It's genuine one, bought it from trusted auction and its the right weight and no magnetic.

The only one I can find that matches that design's particular elements is listed as a 1934.
