COLOMBIA. 1826-JF 8 Escudos. Bogotá mint. Restrepo M165.9. AU-55 (PCGS).
Very nice coppery toning and strong luster give this coin a case for a higher grade, but scrutiny finds a thin scratch across the lower left obverse field that reaches the throat, another running up and down the side of the portrait's neck, and some very subtle hairline scratches at the very central obverse. Well struck and attractive in spite of its minor issues.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
