COLOMBIA. 1760-J 4 Escudos. Popayán mint. Carlos III (1759-1788). Restrepo M64.2. AU-58 (PCGS).
Ferdinand VI portrait. A beautiful example of the debut 4 Escudos from the reign of Carlos III. Flashy reflective luster surrounds design elements against a backdrop of medium yellow gold and pale green highlights. Well struck at centers and very attractive on both sides, with scattered tiny marks but no major defects. Finer than the AU-55 (NGC) Eliasberg coin and a very desirable example.
