Caracas. Republic 4 Reales 1820-BS AU Details (Cleaned) NGC, KM-C7.2. A fortunate encounter in any condition and almost unbelievable in this exceptional presentation. This vastly popular 4 Reales issue is the one of the last produced before the Bolivarian revolution and almost all are seen with major defects. This sensational treasure defies logic as the devices are expressed with an overly gratifying definition, dynamically toned with some pleasing rolling patination on the reverse, and an overall eye appeal that in no way is hindered by a long ago cleaning. Far and away the finest we have seen, or offered, and potentially a marquee piece in its future owner's collection.
