COLOMBIA. 1816-FR-Pn 8 Escudos. Popayán mint. Ferdinand VII (1808-1833). Restrepo M128.25. AU-55 (PCGS).
Light yellow gold with some coppery toning in protected areas and abundant luster on both sides. The upper right obverse field is swollen, but the strike is sharp, nearly completely obliterating the subtle adjustment marks at the base of the shield. A very attractive example with a fine provenance.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
From Amon Carter, August 1974.
Estimate: $1800.00- $2200.00
