COLOMBIA. 1834/3-UR 8 Escudos. Popayán mint. Restrepo M166.36. VF-35 (PCGS).
Very nice for the grade, with even wear showing on deeply toned orange gold surfaces. The overdate is bold and visible to the naked eye. A fairly serious lamination is present in the upper right reverse, but no post-striking flaws are seen on either side aside from a trivial rim abrasion below the date. A handsome example of this scarce overdate.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
From Spink America's sale of the Norweb Collection, March 1997, lot 501.
Estimate: $1500.00- $1800.00
