COLOMBIA. 1788-SF 8 Escudos. Popayán mint. Carlos III (1759-1788). Restrepo M73.42. AU Detail - Rim Damage (PCGS).
Frosty light yellow gold with a very crisp strike and abundant luster on both sides. The obverse is aligned to 3:00, while the reverse is ideally centered. An abrasion on the obverse rim near 4:00 and another on the reverse above SPI of AUSPICE have inspired the grade as assigned, but this coin still possesses very positive aesthetic appeal.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
