COLOMBIA. 1789-JJ 8 Escudos. Santa Fe de Nuevo Reino (Bogotá) mint. Carlos III (1759-1788). Restrepo M72.38. AU-55 (PCGS).
The final Bogotá 8 Escudos struck in the name of Carlos III. Bold luster is visible on both sides, adding flash to even light yellow gold surfaces. Some hairlines are visible on the obverse, and the reverse rim shows some abrasions at right. Very pleasing overall.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
From Mike Dunigan, July 1984.
Estimate: $1300.00- $1800.00
