COLOMBIA. 1868 10 Pesos. Medellín mint. Restrepo M333.3. EF-45 (PCGS).
Bogotá effigy, Reverse of 1864. Said to be unique by Restrepo, though this piece is a distinct example from his plate coin. Pale yellow gold with some darker toning and encrustation around devices. This variety marries an obverse using a portrait familiar from the issues of Bogotá with a reverse with four eight-pointed stars with holes at their centers. Quite rare, an important piece for specialists.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
Estimate: $800.00- $1000.00
