Spanish Colony. Isabel II copper Proof 80 Reaux 1859 PR66 Red Brown NGC, Paris mint, KM-Pn16, Basso-81. Part of a proposed series of coinage for the Philippines that was never adopted, with only a few surviving specimens extant, those remaining few often possess various external impairments. This fantastic example showcases a dazzling glass-like shine amid the fields, exquisite accentuation in the devices, and beautiful rolling wafts of violet and cupric blends. Potentially a marquee addition to its future owner's cabinet and surely a requisite consideration of the enthusiast of Philippine coinage.
