ARGENTINA. 8 Reales, 1831-RA P. NGC EF-40.
KM-20; cf.CJ-32.2(die pairing not listed). RARE date in any grade. Moderate signs of circulation consistent for the grade. Interesting to note that when comparing the plated examples in Janson the obverse die matches that of the 1831/0(CJ-32.1) while the reverse matches that of the clean date 1831(CJ-32.2). Clearly this obverse die was used for a prolonged period of time as it also matches the 1830(CJ-31) also in this sale. Deeply toned with patches of dark tone on the reverse. Overall a handsome example of an interesting variety sure to excite the specialist of Argentine numismatics. NGC EF-40.
