Republic gold 8 Escudos 1850 QUITO-GJ XF40 NGC, Quito mint, KM34.1, Onza-1771. A rare type and date, lightly circulated, but retaining excellent presentability, with loads of luster for the grade and attractive reddish-orange accents that cling to the outer legends. The addition of a very choice strike for the type, which portrays Bolivar's hair detail and the reverse arms even and nearly full, as well as the absence of major planchet imperfects, solidifies the premium in-had appearance for this onza. One of only a small handful of examples we've encountered for the date, with the last example, graded UNC Details - Surface Hairlines by NGC, bringing $57,281.25 three years ago in our 2014 ANA auction.
