COLOMBIA. 1873/2 20 Pesos. Popayán mint. Restrepo M339.9. MS-61 (PCGS).
A remarkable specimen, with boldly reflective surfaces, bright luster, and gorgeous violet-rose toning highlights around the medium yellow gold surfaces. Well struck and problem free, with a high relief and fully realized portrait and outstanding eye appeal. This overdate is a little more subtle than others, but the rounded top of the 2 is visible to the left top of the 3. A small natural planchet fissure on the rim is seen below .900.
From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
From Swiss Bank Corp.'s Auction 34, January 1994, lot 3157.
Estimate: $2500.00- $3500.00
