Colombia
Ferdinand VII 8 Reales 1811 P-JF VF35 NGC, Popayan mint, KM71. An exceptional rarity of both the Colombian and entire Colonial bust 8 Reales series, perhaps the rarest of the latter (alongside the Charles III 8 Reales of the Santiago de Chile mint), this is the elusive first confirmed date of this type. Worn evenly and unobtrusively, this specimen shows sleek unmarred fields imbued with underlying luster, well-detailed and choice for this level of certification. An identically-graded example formed part of our auction 3044 in January 2016, where it realized $11,000 hammer; we anticipate a comparable level of excitement for this important offering, a truly desirable jewel in the Colombian series.
