COLOMBIA. 1752-S 2 Escudos. Santa Fe de Nuevo Reino (Bogotá) mint. Ferdinand VI (1746-1759). Restrepo M94.6. AU-50 (PCGS).
6.76 grams. Well struck and well centered with good eye appeal. Mostly medium yellow gold, but some pink and white coral encrustation persists in the intricacies of the cross. The bottoms of all four date digits are visible, though unfortunately somewhat obscured by the encapsulation. The F / S mintmark is very bold, the S assayer mark is a bit softly rendered but still visible. A handsome, dated 2 Escudos of this later type.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
Acquired from Stack's, April 1981.
Estimate: $1500.00- $3000.00
