COLOMBIA. 1667-PoR 4 Reales. Santa Fe de Nuevo Reino (Bogotá) mint. Carlos II (1665-1700). Restrepo M60.1. VF-35 (PCGS).
13.40 grams. Plated in Restrepo and Restrepo-Lasser from an old line drawing, apparently taken from an early edition of Calicó. Nice dark gray toning on a chunky, tight planchet. The edge is a bit crude in one spot, with a split above the left pillar that also affects the last digit of the IIII denomination left of the shield. The date, assayer, and mintmark are all perfectly clear, and the lions and castles are nicely defined as well. Problem free and attractive, this is uncommon as both a date and a type.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
