Doesn't seem to be a lot of coins.  Is the number auctioning normal?  Don't know why I expected more.

[PandaOrLunar]

Well never mind.  It appears it's more now.  Go figure.  Must be still in progress?

The catalog was not finished last week when I asked. It should be a pretty good-sized auction based on a conversation.

The auction results for fen coins and great wall coins are excellent, especially for 1979-1986 mint and proof sets. Specifically, 1984 Shanghai version proof set fetched a valuation higher than 1985 set and 70% higher than the price guide posted on 3/6/2018 at coin001.com, in the following link.

In addition, this coin was also re-graded, with a green sticker, by a well-known expert inside China to certify that NGC grade is correct.

Notice the obvious tool marks on the obverse which was made to look like frosting.  How this coin was even graded is beyond me...what a shame;

There have been some discussions on the tool marks on coin001.com. They appear to be intentional, observed on both business strikes and proof versions of the Great Wall coins. It is strange that the field takes on this frosting effect, not just the devices. This frosted field in the national emblem also appears on precious metal coins, such as these:
