COLOMBIA. 1790 Proclamation 4 Reales of Carlos IV. Popayán. Medina-213, Herrera-186. Silver. MS-62 (PCGS).
Flashy and lustrous, with subtle violet, blue, and gold tones on light to medium gray surfaces. A very attractive piece, displaying a local portrait of Carlos III on the obverse and a sunrise over the cityscape on the reverse. Only minor hairlines and scuffs are seen, none serious, along with a few long lintmarks on both sides that suggest these dies were carefully polished before striking. A particularly handsome example.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
Estimate: $500.00- $1000.00
