Spanish Colony, Sancti Spiritus. Isabel II silver Proclamation Medal 1834 VF Details (Holed) NGC, Herrera-52. Obverse: VIVA ISABEL II REIN A DE ESPANA E INDIA, bust of Isabel right. Reverse: MARCO DE CASTRO ALFERES REAL, date (1834) below shield, S P to either side. An extremely rare proclamation medal; according to our research, no others of this type have been offered for sale in at least 15 years. Very crudely made with a neat piercing at 12 o'clock, a piece which appears exceptionally dramatic and charismatic in hand. An exceedingly seldom-offered prize for the collector of Cuban or Spanish medals.
