COLOMBIA. 1759-J 8 Escudos. Popayán mint. Ferdinand VI (1746-1759). Restrepo M26.4. AU-50 (PCGS).
Medium yellow gold with traces of pale green toning and far more reverse luster than the assigned grade would suggest. Off-center to 6:30 on the obverse, with the full length of the denticles and the die edge visible at the upper right, aligned to 5:00 on the reverse. Flashy and problem free, a very nice example of the second year of this short-lived type. The Eliasberg specimen was graded Fine Details (NGC) with several rim bruises and other issues.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
